Pru is on her own. But then, so are plenty of other people. And
while the loneliness can be overwhelming, surely she'll find a
party somewhere? 'Moggach is at the height of her powers' Sunday
Times Pru's husband has walked out, leaving her alone to
contemplate her future. She's missing not so much him, but the life
they once had - picnicking on the beach with small children,
laughing together, nestling up like spoons in the cutlery drawer as
they sleep. Now there's just a dip on one side of the bed and
no-one to fill it. In a daze, Pru goes off to a friend's funeral.
Usual old hymns, words of praise and a eulogy but...it doesn't
sound like the friend Pru knew. And it isn't. She's gone to the
wrong service. Everyone was very welcoming, it was - oddly - a
laugh, and more excitement than she's had for ages. So she buys a
little black dress in a charity shop and thinks, now I'm all set,
why not go to another? I mean, people don't want to make a scene at
a funeral, do they? No-one will challenge her - and what harm can
it do? 'Full of warmth and humour, as well as blistering truths'
