'n Aangrypende verhaal van tweede kanse

Juanita Aggenbach se boeke lyk almal vir my bekend vanweë treffende buiteblaaie, maar ek glo nie ek het al enige daarvan gelees nie. Toe ek haar vyfde roman, Liewer as lig, begin lees, was daar geen twyfel dat dit stewig staan in die geestelike fiksie genre nie.
Daar word nie geskimp oor geloofsake soos wedergeboorte nie, dit word by die naam genoem. Onderwerpe wat van altyd af twispunte is in kerkgeledere, soos grootdoop versus kinderdoop, gebruik van sterk drank en die immer-aanvegbare rookgewoonte, kom draai in die storielyn oor Schalk en Leah se lewe. Tekste uit die Bybel word selektief aangehaal en Schalk se gesprekke met die Vader is ’n perfekte weergawe van sy stryd en oorwinnings.
Schalk, ’n advokaat, en Leah, ’n hoërskoolonderwyseres, lewe welvarend en hard. Dit is vir hulle nie ongewoon om ná ’n kuier met vriende, erg kroes wakker te word nie. ’n Kollega van Schalk is ’n uitgesproke Christen en sy voorbeeld begin vir Schalk aanspreek; soveel so dat hy by die Here uitkom. Leah is egter in totale verset teen die nuwe Schalk en weier om saam met hom Bybel te lees.
Die verhaal onderstreep dat om die Here te volg jou nie gaan vrywaar van probleme nie. Daar is nie noodwendig kitsoplossings vir probleme soos finansies nie. Dit mag nodig wees om onvoorwaardelik te vergewe en indringend te kyk na prioriteite.
Liewer as lig lees maklik – dank aan die uitgewer, Lux Verbi (geestelike druknaam van Jonathan Ball Uitgewers) vir die lettertipe wat sag is op die oog. Klein letters en digte spasiëring word vir my al hoe moeiliker om te hanteer. Ek kan dit aanbeveel vir ander met dieselfde dilemma.

A Honest journey through a devasting loss

“There is no handbook for grief. There cannot be, because each loss is as unique as the person it belongs to.” (p.36) This is but one of the profound truths penned by Dominique Olivier in her book, Lessons from loss. The author does not strive to act as councilor or therapist, although she has a passion for reaching out to others who has suffered a loss. On the contrary, it is a painfully honest account of her journey through a devastating loss that she suffered.
Dominique lost both her husband and her young daughter in a horrific traffic accident. From the outset she makes it clear that there should be no hierarchy of loss. Although losing a spouse or a child is often deemed as the worst kind of loss, it can be the loss of a marriage, a miscarriage or a job that sets you off on a painful path of recovery. Another sentiment that struck home, is the idea that grief has no expiry date. (p.51) She describes it as “something chronic”.
The writer does not lean on sentimentality. The vivid descriptions of panic attacks, the constant anxiety that plagued her, the criticism that she encountered during the journey through her grief, painful triggers – all of this put together in a remarkable account of loss, and an attempt to “move forward” not to “move on”.
Whether or not you are a member of what the author calls “The Losers Club”, membership of which can only be obtained by own loss, the journey of Dominique Olivier will not leave you untouched.
