"Judy Collins was dealt one of life's worst blows in the suicide of her beloved son, Clark. She has dealt with that tragedy heroically in her beautifully written book, Sanity and Grace. I was both moved to tears and filled with the most enormous admiration for her as she depicted the phases of grief that ultimately led to her ability to go on with her life. There is beauty in this book."
