Summary:
"Weaving together client experiences with a personal life path full of wander and wonder, Briefly Perfectly Human is a soul-gathering debut. Alua's intimate storytelling, compassion, and wisdom are a beacon of comfort and a tour de force appeal to cherish every part of who we are, including our own mortality. "Hold that truth in your mind," Alua says, "and wondrous things will begin to grow around it.""-- Provided by publisher.
