"The follow-up to her earlier memoir 'A Three Dog Life,' a book about aging, family, creativity, tragedy, friendship, and the richness of life. What comes after the devastating loss of Abigail's husband, a process both sudden and slow? What form does her lifelong platonic friendship take after a certain line is crossed? How to cope with her daughter's illness? Or the death of her beloved dog? How to accept, appreciate, enjoy. Who are our most trusted, valuable companions and what will we do for them? A moving memoir about many things, but at the center is a steadfast friendship between Abigail Thomas and a man she met thirty-five years ago. Through marriages, child-raising, the vicissitudes and tragedies of life, it is this deep, rich bond that has sustained her. Abigail Thomas, the daughter of science writer Lewis Thomas (The Lives of a Cell), is the author of six previous books. She teaches writing and lives in Woodstock, New York"--Provided by publisher.
