'If anyone knows how to be happy and old, it's Hunter. Read a page
before breakfast and two at night, preferably with food'- Michael
Palin. 'As long as I'm alive, I'll be with her, and she'll be with
me.' Hunter Davies on Margaret Forster. Happy Old Me is a moving
yet uplifting account of one year in Hunter Davies' life,
navigating bereavement and finding hope in the future. On 8th
February 2016, Margaret Forster lost her life to cancer of the
spine. The days that followed for her husband, Hunter Davies, were
carried out on autopilot: arrangements to be made, family and
friends to be contacted. But how do you cope after you have lost
your loved one? How do you carry on? As Hunter navigates what it
means to be alone again after 55 years of marriage, coping with
bereavement and being elderly (he still doesn't believe he is), he
shares his wisdom and lessons he has learnt living alone again.
Revealing his emotional journey over the course of one year, as
well as the often ignored practical implications of becoming
widowed, he learns that, ultimately, bricks and mortar may change
but the memories will remain. Part memoir, part self-help, Happy
Old Me is a fitting, heart-felt tribute to the love of his life and
a surprisingly amusing and informative book about an age, and stage
in life, which we might all reach someday. The third book in Hunter
Davies' much-loved memoir series, which includes The Co-Op's Got
Bananas and A Life in the Day.
