The article focuses on the book "Will the Circle Be Unbroken? Reflections on Death, rebirth, and Hunger for a Faith," by Studs Terkel. The death in 1999 of Ida, Terkel's wife and companion for sixty years, caused him to share his grief with friends and strangers in various walks of life. Terkel discovered that everybody had similar feelings about deceased loved ones. As the title indicates, he began to wonder about the here- after and what remains for the living. Terkel himself has known how a serious illness can affect one's lifestyle.
