Touching, hilarious . . . a journey of hope and courage

The Times

Waterhouse sparkles in this fictional diary of a newly-bereaved widow

Daily Express

Often moving, often comic . . . The strength of this novel lies in pathos and in its onwards-and-ever-upwards, day-to-day detail

Literary Review

Se alle

A realistic view of bereavement, full of humour

Mail on Sunday

Beautifully written

Sunday Independent (Ireland)

Returning from the memorial service for her husband, a tough tabloid editor cut down in his prime, June Pepper sets about following his instructions to keep a journal as therapy. But both grief and the journal prove elusive. Distracted by a problem stepdaughter and by a liaison with a man she discovers wearing one of her husband's old suits, June finds bereavement far from straightforward. And as she empties skeletons from closets, she learns there is far more to life than death.
