Maddy's husband, the poet Michael Donaghy, died suddenly at the age
of fifty, leaving her to bring up their young son alone. After the
shock of his unexpected death, the funeral and public mourning of
this well-loved and respected writer, Maddy had to help her son
deal with the loss of his father and come to terms herself with
being a lone parent. In this extraordinary account, she describes
how grief and bereavement had re-opened the wounds of her past -
the loneliness and emotional neglect of her childhood - which must
be acknowledged and healed if she was to truly find her way back
into life. She learned that there are gifts in pain and tragedy, if
you have the courage to look for them. And she came to understand
just what the incredible love of her husband had brought her, and
how hard it was to lose that. Written with warmth and humour as
well as searing honesty, this book takes an unflinching look at
both what it means to grieve, and what it means to love.
