Annegreet van Bergen is coming to Van der Velde Boeken in Sneek for a lecture about her latest book Over liefde, de dood en verder leven na verlies (On Love, Death and Continuing Life After Loss).
A few hours before he died, Annegreet van Bergen’s husband asked: ‘Don’t we do kisses anymore?’ These were his last words. Although his death was anything but unexpected, Annegreet was overwhelmed by the relentless grief that followed his passing.
Pragmatic, candid and light-footed, she talks about her own experiences, compares them with those of other bereaved people and places them against the backdrop of recent social developments such as increased patient autonomy and changing views on medical ethics.
Over liefde is not only recognizable and comforting for those in similar situations, but also useful for anyone who wants to prepare for death and how to continue when you are left behind after the death of a loved one.
