Poppy fields

In a remote location in the desert of Southern California, there is a clinic specializing in one kind of therapy - healing sleep for those who are grieving for their loved ones. This clinic is called Poppy Field.

I don't think anyone is, who would have avoided painful losses in life, who wouldn't know, what it's like to lose a loved one, what it's like to be overwhelmed by grief, to grieve with feeling, that everything has lost its meaning, that he'd run out of strength, that he can't go on. But since science is not slowing down and research is rushing forward, voilà, we have a solution for you! Just apply and if you are approved as a suitable adept, you can put on your red pyjamas and lie down on a bed in the Poppy Fields, where you will sleep for one to two months, and when you wake up, the acute phase of mourning will be over. You will feel lighter and life will go on. That is, unless you are one of the unlucky ones affected by the side effect.

The book asks many questions, such as whether such a "cure" for grief caused by loss is even desirable, whether the solution is simply to sleep off the worst and move on, sometimes at the cost of erasing feelings for the deceased. Because even if none of us want to experience such pain, what if it has an irreplaceable place in our lives?
