I couldn't find a way of saying that Rachel's religiosity isn't an overwhelming presence in the book, and shouldn't prevent women from all backgrounds from connecting with it.

I should perhaps have given credit to "Pica" (see above comment) for making the edition I have a copy of: the 11th of an edition of ten, apparently. I’m sure you won’t be disappointed.

An exceptional book that does touch everybody. Like Christine, I've had a miscarriage but am lucky enough to have two boys.......but it is still an awful pain. I’ve just visited here via Dale.

This poem you have here is so beautiful! I've had two miscarriages, but I also have two sons. Still, it's a heartbreak to think of those times, even now. I'll definitely read the chap. Thanks so much for sharing. Plus a handmade chapbook, how wonderful. It is a very tough subject, but one close to the hearts of many women, and the men who watch them grieve.

When really it has relatively little to teach us about the trials and tribulations of ordinary existence. It's not hard to make the case that miscarriage is actually a much more illuminating window.
