Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Hidden In Shadow tells the story of Janna Barber, a grown up preacher's daughter, who stumbled into the art of lament.By the time Janna graduated high school, she had lived in five states and twelve houses; changing schools seven times. However, the Church culture she grew up in taught her to ignore and suppress the grief brought on by these losses.After leaving home, Janna got married and started having kids, only to find herself sadder than she'd been as a kid. Suffering through depression, miscarriages, and many bouts of harmful thinking, Janna finally turned to writing as a way to process her emotions. Through writing and therapy, Janna learned that the ability to experience hope and joy is directly related to a willingness to enter into times of sadness and lament. With warmth, wit, and humor, Janna invites readers to examine their own grief and see if it might be transformed into something good.
