Tears, Love, Lust for Life

In April, Munich journalist Kimberly Hagen completely loses her husband out of the blue during a routine procedure. From then on, pain and grief take over the life of the vivacious power woman. At 41, she becomes a grieving widow. In addition, she is assigned a social role as a widow that she cannot and does not want to accept. But what is an appropriate way to deal with grief? How do you face the pain – how do you not break, but even grow from it? How do you deal with people who are afraid of the grief of others? And who decides how long you are allowed to grieve? Kimberly Hagen openly and very personally describes in her grief diary the terrible, bizarre, and sometimes hilariously funny madness between grief, grave shopping, a tsunami of condolences, breakdown, self-healing, and an armada of new men who suddenly appear in her new life. She tells of her way back into everyday life and society, of the therapeutic calm in the icy stream, the power of dragonflies, and the blissful certainty of friendships. "Tears, Love, Lust for Life" is the book of a strong and independent woman who, step by step, finds her way into her new life and gets to know and love her new self. And who, after the first year of mourning, is much more awake, mature, and powerful than ever before.
