Product Description
Book Description
'I was not a widow. Had I been married to Victor it might have been easier. It was Molly who had the comfort of the children, hers and Victor's...I was left alone to come to terms with my grief, despair and anger, most of all anger in a society which is based upon the couple and in which death is unmentionable.' After an affair lasting twenty-six years, Jean Banks' married lover dies. Gradually the self-assured Jean is overwhelmed by loneliness, sleeping pills and depression. Routine tasks defeat her - and she avoids suicide only by a twist of fate. In the midst of her unhappiness, a friendship blossoms with Victor's widow, and ultimately life and love are rediscovered. A Second Wife, the sequel to A Loving Mistress, is the story of a very human recovery - the journey from darkness to all-enveloping love. AUTHBIO: Rosemary Friedman is a highly successful writer whose career spans eighteen top-selling novels, non-fiction works, film and TV screenplays, and books for children. She writes with great feeling and insight about the broad range of human experience from love and relationships to work and death. Her books have achieved international recognition. She has held a number of distinguished positions, including membership of the Executive Committees of PEN and the Society of Authors. Rosemary Friedman lives and works in London.
