DAMAGED GOODS is a blend of humor and raw emotion, capturing the absurdities of life in the face of loss. From the awkward encounters with clueless neighbors to the horribly uncomfortable binge-watching of shockingly sexual Diane Lane movies with his mother, these essays offer a candid perspective on the grieving process. Along the way, John developed his own six stages of grief to connect with readers who have experienced loss in any form, reminding them they are not alone-and that it's okay to laugh through the tears.
