Two women from different backgrounds became close after one lost her husband and then the other shortly after. Together they found solace and strength in sharing stories of their painful and sometimes funny new moments they were going through. They decided to create a resource that they wished they had themselves and wanted to provide for others. The result is a book which captures their experiences of widowhood with candor, tenderness, and yes, even humor. A book that could help a new widow feel less alone, and an experienced widow feel more seen. It encourages all widows to embrace their own strength and believe in a bright future. Through poignant essays, the authors offer insightful observations on their own lives; practical tips for widows; advice for those who love and want to support a widow in their life; and more. The book is made complete by moving original color illustrations by Priska Wenger Mage, cartoons by New Yorker's John Klossner, and inspiring essays on notable widows from history by author Marian Lye.
