Summary
“Still is one of those rare books that catches you up and does not let you go. With grace, courage, and honesty, Emma Hansen adds an important voice to this tragic and too-often silenced subject. I loved this book.” (Beth Powning, author of Shadow Child: An Apprenticeship in Love and Loss)
A moving, candid account of one woman’s experience with stillbirth.
Emma Hansen is 39 weeks and six days pregnant when she feels her baby go quiet inside of her. At the hospital, her worst fears are confirmed: doctors explain that her baby has died, and she will need to deliver him, still.
Hansen gives birth to her son, Reid, amidst an avalanche of grief. Nine days later, she publishes a candid essay on her website sharing photos from the delivery room. Much to her surprise, her essay goes viral, sparking positive reactions around the world. Still shares what comes next: a struggle with grief and confusion alongside a desire to better understand stillbirth, which is experienced by more than two million women annually, but rarely talked about in public.
At once honest, brave, and uplifting, Still is about one woman’s search for her own definition of motherhood, even as she faces one of life’s greatest challenges: learning to live after loss.
Critic reviews

“Vulnerable and powerful... Still is a story that strengthens our bonds as humans.” (Christy Turlington Burns, founder, Every Mother Counts)
"One of those rare books that catches you up and does not let you go. Both enriching and ultimately uplifting. Still adds an important voice to this tragic and too-often silenced subject." (Beth Powning, author of Shadow Child)
