Each piece, read alone, portrays a classmate's or teacher's personal reaction to the loss, taken hard by some, by others barely noticed. Read together, the poems create a richly textured and moving testimony to the rippling effects of one girl's devastating choice. Terri Fields has written a thought-provoking, important work that resonates with both pain and hope. This is a book of poetry that will stay with readers long after they put it down. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003eIn support of Suicide Prevention Month, the book AFTER THE DEATH OF ANNA GONZALES will be available for FREE for September, 2020 only. \u003c\/b\u003eThe collection of poems of 47 people's reactions to learning of a teen's suicide has been successfully performed as readers theater.
