The Post-9/11 Veterans Educational Assistance Act of 2008 (Post-9/11 GI Bill)-enacted as Title V of the Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2008 (P.L. 110-252) on June 30, 2008-is the newest GI Bill and went into effect on August 1, 2009. There were four main drivers for the Post-9/11 GI Bill: (1) providing parity of benefits for reservists and members of the regular Armed Forces, (2) ensuring comprehensive educational benefits, (3) meeting military recruiting goals, and (4) improving military retention through transferability of benefits. By FY2010, the program had the largest numbers of participants and the highest total obligations compared to the other GI Bills.

This is a collection of 15 essays by contemporary writers such as Nina Bawden, Maeve Binchy, Lucy Ellmann, Shusha Guppy, Andrew Motion, Gillian Slovo and Mary Scott on the death of a parent and the profound shifts this causes in our mental landscape, forcing us to face our own maturity and mortality. A parent's death can also give us a new insight into the people they were, the people we are, and, if we have them, into the relationship we have with our children.
