Query: no sugar coating here! True life account of being a widow!

This is the first book that accurately touches what being a "widow" encompasses!! Being a young widow myself since the loss of my soul-mate in 1999, I have read many books dealing with death and the grief process. Ericsson explores poignantly the many facets of loss that a woman experiances after the death a spouse. Her straightforward dialogue of the many struggles that one encounters during this life-changing journey is accurately conveyed to her readers. Her ability to address the many emotions that one experiances after loss of a spouse from the feelings of anger, abandonment, lonliness, resentment, to the need of intimacy and sexuality is refreshingly received. This book is a must read for those in the midst of angst.
