EVERY FAMILY HAS A STORY - JULIA SAMUEL GEBUNDEN

THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER 'Essential  clever and kind' Alain de Botton 'I am a huge admirer
of Julia's work' Elizabeth Day ______________________ Why do some families thrive in adversity
while others fragment? How can families weather difficult transitions together? Why do our
families drive us mad? And how can even small changes greatly improve our relationships? In
Every Family Has a Story  bestselling psychotherapist Julia Samuel turns from her acclaimed
work with individuals to draw on her sessions with a wide variety of families  across multiple
generations. Through eight beautifully told and insightful case studies  she analyses a range
of common issues  from loss to leaving home  and from separation to step-relationships  and
shows how much is  in fact  inherited -- and how much can be healed when it is faced together.
Exploring the relationships that both touch us most and hurt us most  including the often
under-appreciated impact of grandparents and siblings  and incorporating the latest academic
research  she offers wisdom that is applicable to us all. Her twelve touchstones for family
well-being -- from fighting productively to making time for rituals -- provide us with the
tools to improve our relationships  and to create the families we wish for. This is a moving
and reassuring meditation that  amid trauma and hardship  tells unforgettable stories of
forgiveness  hope and love. ______________________ 'Everyone who reads this will learn
something profound' Dr Rachel Clarke 'Offers vivid insights in a book for all families' Kathryn
Mannix 'I love every word she writes' Cathy Rentzenbrink
