A novella really, snippets of memories and bits of life now, without one's spouse and the shared evening rituals. There are lovely line drawings throughout, each depicting the theme of the chapter and that part of the widow's grief. I don't know if this book would help or hurt one who has lost a beloved spouse. But I have gifted other books on the loss of a mate and each time was told how much it helped to hear others who understood perfectly this kind of deep grief.
That said, I have read other Godwin's books and thought them more solid. (It was so difficult finding a way to describe the difference without sounding cold.)
