Es war so gut, dich neben mir zu wissen

So let us say goodbye like two stars. In times of farewell, it is difficult to find the right words of comfort and to offer hope. This bibliophile gift book accompanies the grieving with thoughts from Goethe, Shakespeare, Heine, Michelangelo, and many other wise men and women from world history. Their words inspire soothing memories, give the bereaved courage to live, and provide meaning to the inevitable end of human existence. The Leipzig graphic artist Doreen Steinke created the harmonious images that are characterized by great depth, sensitivity, and empathy. A comfort for the eye, for the soul. An art book for remembrance and consolation.
