Songs from a Window: End-of-Life Stories from the Music Therapy Room - Paperback

by Bob Heath (Author)

When music therapist Bob starts working with people at the end of their lives, he realises they all have an important story to tell. But how can they say the unsayable, particularly when they are dying? In his therapy room, people tell their stories, heal emotional wounds and create legacies using words and music. Songs from a Window is a memoir about looking out, and looking in. It's about living and dying, music and therapy, but most of all it's a book about the power of the human spirit, hope and love.

Perfect for fans of Oliver Sachs's Musicophilia, Irvin Yalom's Creatures of a Day and Stephen Grosz's The Examined Life.
