Description

About the Book

The Story of an Intangible Love is a deeply emotional reflection on love, loss, grief, and the quiet strength that emerges after profound personal tragedy. The book explores the author’s journey through the loss of her mother and other loved ones, revealing how grief reshapes identity, perception, and purpose. Rather than focusing on absence, the narrative emphasizes the enduring presence of love—how it transforms, deepens, and continues beyond physical existence.
Through personal memories, poetry, and philosophical insight, the author introduces the idea of “intangible love”: a love that survives death, lives within the heart, and expresses itself through memories, values, actions, and inherited dreams. The book highlights how loved ones continue to exist through us—through our words, habits, and the lives we choose to live.
The story also honors relationships formed beyond blood, such as the moving account of Akku, whose unfinished dreams are carried forward by her brother, illustrating how love passes from one soul to another through purpose and action.
Rejecting the idea of “moving on,” the book instead embraces acceptance—learning to live with grief while allowing love to evolve. Ultimately, it offers comfort to anyone who has loved deeply and lost, reminding readers that love never ends; it simply changes form and becomes eternal.
