Summary "Forget selfish, ambitious, uncaring and tough. This book is about longing and loss, grief and resilience. The author delves beneath the childless woman's armour, finding more often a sadness that is seldom shared - a silent longing for the intangible presence of a child that never was and never will be."--Back cover
