Separating, a book about the painful experience
of divorce, was written from a child's point of
view. However, it is especially poignant for the
parents who are not only dealing with their
children's feelings, but also with their own. The
purpose of the book is to acknowledge and allow
the pain in order for the family to move through it to the other side which can eventually become
joy. The author wrote this book years after
looking back on her childrens' and her own
arduous journey through divorce.
