"This novel tells the story of the death by cancer of a young husband. It is narrated by his wife, whose simple, loving, unadorned voice allows the reader entrance into the most intimate and compelling and universal of emotions. This is a story about love and death and survival that is affirmative at the same time as it is unbearably sad. An honest testament to the joys of married love, it is written with a quiet intensity that shows the preciousness and worthwhileness of life."
