Not All Pain Screams: Poems on Loss, Love, Fatherhood and Healing (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781807690939)

Grief doesn't always shout. Sometimes, it lingers in the quiet moments: in the empty chair at the dinner table, the school form asking for a mother's name, or the wardrobe full of clothes she'll never wear again. Not All Pain Screams is the first book in Nigel Stagg's poetry series, a raw and honest exploration of life after loss. Through the daily realities of raising children alone and the slow, unglamorous work of healing, these poems reach for truth, not drama. By the final page, love has found its way back, and life has begun again. For anyone who has carried grief in silence or navigated pain that never quite screamed, these words will resonate deeply.
