When Your Partner Dies

Richard Stanton is a journalist. He originally began interviewing women who had lost their husbands for his masters thesis, and he discovered there were no books on the subject. Many of the women mentioned that they found it hard to discuss their ongoing grief with family and friends, and that they had never told anyone. This inspired him to gather some of these stories in a book so that other women could benefit from their experience.
