"Camilla Gibb, author of Sweetness in the Belly
... and The Beauty of Humanity Movement, reveals the intensity of the grief that besieged her as the happiness of a longed for family shattered. Grief that lived in a potent mix with the solace that arose with the creation of another, most unexpected family. A family constituted by a small cast of resilient souls, adults broken in the way many of us are, united in love for a child. Reflecting on tangled moments of past sadness and joy, alienation and belonging, Gibb revisits her stories now in relation to the happy daughter who will inherit them, and she finds there new meaning and beauty. This Is Happy asks the big questions and finds answers in the tender moments of the everyday. Camilla Gibb has a Ph.D. from Oxford University and teaches in the graduate creative writing programs at the University of Toronto and the University of Guelph-Humber"--Provided by publisher.
