âToo long a sacrifice/ Can make a stone of the heart.â â William Butler Yeats, from Easter, 1916
As we enter COVID, Year Two, death and loss haunt us. We mourn for the dead and remain attentive to the mounting butcherâs bill of hospitalizations and deaths.
In that sense, B.C. author Cathy Sosnowskyâs new memoir, Finding Heartstone: a Taste of Wilderness, is a timely read. The author, who lost one child to a freak accident and two others to addiction and the streets, leads workshops for bereaved parents as part of her work with the North Shore Compassionate Friends (a group that supports those who have experienced family loss.) Clearly, Sosnowsky is, in the plangent Biblical phrase, âa woman of sorrow, acquainted with grief.â
