Joyce Carol Oates has been heralded as one of the world's greatest contemporary writers.

In 2008, after her husband died unexpectedly, Joyce was faced - totally unprepared - with the reality of widowhood. This is the harrowing memoir of her loss and her struggle to comprehend a life absent of the partnership that had sustained and defined her for nearly half a century. Enlivened by the piercing vision, acute perception and mordant humour that are the hallmarks of the work of Joyce Carol Oates.

A Widow's Story is an extremely moving tale of life and death, love and grief.
