Whenever I happen upon copies of Good Grief by Granger Westberg, I buy some. It is a very short book with very short chapters, but with a more well-defined spectrum of grief-states than Kubler-Ross's.
Pluses: brevity, requires surprisingly little concentration, about grieving, identifies more reactions as normal than K-R does, carried by most bookstores
Minuses: comes in purse-friendly inexpensive paperback rather than reassuring hardcover, one more book added to collection (or some, if you go my route--not, by the way, like the paranoid Mel Gibson character who keeps buying The Catcher in the Rye in that one movie).
May the Lord bless you and keep you and make his face to shine upon you.

Not a magazine, nor yet a haiku
