Realities

Jenny Weaver is smart, she's funny, and she's so lonely it hurts.

A year after her husband's suicide, Jenny impulsively moves from the Northeast to California. Her young children adjust to the move, but she does not. She has made only one friend, and she isn't sure of how to handle the children's problems. In a moment of deep frustration and loneliness, she begins writing to her dead husband, Richard, telling him about her daily life. She also writes about the past until it becomes threatening. But when she decides not to write to him anymore, she finds it impossible to stop. The answer to their children's question-- "How-and why-did-Daddy-die?"-- is in the past, and she can't hide from the truth forever.

In this intensely personal narrative, Jenny finds courage and wisdom she didn't know she possessed.
