Inspired by the website that the New York Times hailed as redefining mourning, this book is a fresh and irreverent examination into navigating grief and resilience in the age of social media, offering comfort and community for coping with the mess of loss through candid original essays from a variety of voices, accompanied by gorgeous two-color illustrations and wry infographics.

At a time when we mourn public figures and national tragedies with hashtags, where intimate posts about loss go viral and we receive automated birthday reminders for dead friends, it's clear we are navigating new terrain without a road map.

Let's face it: most of us have always had a difficult time talking about death and sharing our grief. We're awkward and uncertain; we avoid, ignore, or even deny feelings of sadness; we offer platitudes; we send sympathy bouquets whittled out of fruit.

Enter Rebecca Soffer and Gabrielle Birkner, who can help us do better. Each having lost parents as young adults, they co-founded Modern Loss, responding to a need to change the dialogue around the messy experience of grief. Now, in this wise and often funny book, they offer the insights of the Modern Loss community to help us cry, laugh, grieve, identify, and--above all--empathize.

Soffer and Birkner, along with forty guest contributors including Lucy Kalanithi, singer Amanda Palmer, and CNN's Brian Stelter, reveal their own stories on a wide range of topics including triggers, sex, secrets, and inheritance. Accompanied by beautiful hand-drawn illustrations and witty how to cartoons, each contribution provides a unique perspective on loss as well as a remarkable life-affirming message.

Brutally honest and inspiring, Modern Loss invites us to talk intimately and humorously about grief, helping us confront the humanity (and mortality) we all share. Beginners welcome.

--Damon Lindelof, co-creator of Lost and The Leftovers

Amazing Results for My Gut Health!
I’ve been using these Gut Health Capsules with Berberine for a week now, and I can honestly say I’ve noticed a huge difference in my digestion and overall wellness. My bloating has gone down, my stomach feels calmer, and I’ve had much more energy throughout the day. I also love that it supports metabolism while helping with gut health at the same time. The capsules are easy to swallow, and I appreciate that they are vegan and non-GMO. I’ve tried several probiotic supplements before, but this one feels much more effective. I also didn’t experience any harsh side effects, which was a big plus for me. If you’re looking for a supplement to support gut balance, digestion, and overall health, I definitely recommend giving this a try!

Wrecked my stomach
Shipping was months late. DOESN'T SAY IN DESCRIPTION THAT THEY SHIP FROM CHINA. NO RETURN OPTIONS When they finally arrived, I took them for 3 weeks and my stomach was a wreck. Couldn't eat, very bloated, felt constantly full, nauseous 15-20 minutes after taking it and couldnt go to the bathroom regularly. DO NOT BUY!!

Great product!
I've been taking this gut health product for 10 days and can tell a huge positive difference already! I am 65 years old and have been overweight for about 13 years. I have been unable to lose weight until recently through diet and exercise, but after losing only 10 pounds I was unable to lose more to reach my goal of 30 pounds. I read about this product (originally Nuora) and decided to give it a try. My gut us feeling much better, no side effects, lots of energy, and I've lost two pounds already! I am reordering for me and my husband! I tried to give 5 stars but the site would only mark it as 4.

I found that this product didn't work for me, but doesn't mean it wouldn't help anyone else. I did not notice a difference.

Mom says they have been working so far for that bloated feeling
As of late she's been getting more discomfort and these have been helping her with indigestion. They seem to be working as intended but of course she will continue to use them for a longer period so that hopefully those symptoms she was having reside. She likes that it overall helps support metabolism and balances the gut. The natural ingredients are a plus. Doesn't have to worry about any GMO's and additives. After the bottle runs out I'll probably buy another for her since they seem to help her upset stomach.
