In her lovely new novel, acclaimed author Cathie Pelletier presents a witty and refreshingly candid portrait of grief, intergenerational issue, and the impact one person can have on those he cherished. Bixley, Maine: One year after Henry Munroe's fatal heart attack at era 41, his doting parents, prudish better half, rebellious son, and wayward brother are still reeling. So is Evie Cooper, a bartender, self-proclaimed "spiritual portraitist", and Henry's former mistress. While his widow, Jeanie, battles with the betrayal, Henry's overbearing mother is making plans to hold a memorial service. As the time frame of the tribute pulls closer and these worlds threaten to collide, the Munroes grapple with the frailty of their own lives and the knowledge that love is all that matters. With her brand wry wit and wisdom, Cathie Pelletier has built a stylish and remarkably uplifiting portrait of the many strange and inspiring varieties that grief can take in its voyage toward healing.
