"The Afterlife of Billy Fingers" by Annie Kagan

The lovely Annie Kagan lost her older brother, a life-long alcoholic and drug addict, to a horrific automobile/pedestrial accident. In the depths of her despairing grief he came back to her, talking to her and asking her to write a book with him about his experience of the afterlife. She hesitatingly began writing down what he was saying, and over time, her brother sent her enough confirmation in the real world of what he was saying, that she realized it was happening for real. It was not her imagination!

This is a well-written chronicle of one spirit's experience of the afterlife, and what is more, it shows for the first time, so far as I know, what happens to us when we have lived our last lifetime on earth! And I always deeply, sincerely wondered what that was going to be like. 

The Afterlife of Billy Fingers is chock full of wisdom. It is also deeply comforting for those who have recently lost a loved one; it is confirmation that we are not our bodies, and that we continue beyond the grave or crematorium.

It goes without saying that this book is a "must-read" for the grieving.
