The Widow's Tale

A newly-widowed woman has done a runner. She just jumped in her car, abandoned her house in north London and kept on driving until she reached the Norfolk coast. Now she's rented a tiny cottage and holed herself away there, if only to escape the insincere concern. She's not quite sure, but thinks she may be having a bit of a breakdown.

"It's very funny about the small indignities of grief, as well as the complex and muddy nature of bereavement." - Deborah Moggach
