Cartea "A Grief Observed" am cumpărat-o din acelaşi motiv pentru care am cumpărat şi „A Year with C. S. Lewis”: pentru că include textul original în lb. engleză al scriitorului.
Însă această nouă ediție în lb. engleză, faţă de versiunea în lb. română „De ce Doamne? O radiografie a suferinței (în traducerea Tatianei Niculescu, la ed. Humanitas), include alături de textul inițial al cărții scris de C. S. Lewis, și 7 scurte contribuții oferite de respectați scriitori și gânditori contemporani britanici, ca o replică la conținutul și la temele cărții. Ei descriu suferințe similare trăite, iar rândurile lor au darul de a fi terapeutice în procesul interior de vindecare după pierderea unei persoane dragi.
