Description

When childhood grief is silenced, mourning lasts a lifetime.


Veteran author and writing teacher Judy Lev (Labensohn) brings us the touching 70-year-old story about the death of her baby brother, Joey, and its devastating impact on her family history. In a moving memoir that blends fact, fiction, and personal essays, the Pushcart Prize nominee seeks a longing for closure, while grappling with her anger at being silenced. The process of revealing family secrets buried decades ago launched a journey into imaginative grief-processing, in which she crafts alternative scenarios to Joey's life and death and rewrites her own life story. Lev's book introduces play and imagination as integral parts of the grieving process. Our Names Do Not Appear opens mesmerizing windows into the complexities of family trauma and grief that take hold over decades.
