Presents a collection of poems that evoke the poet's long marriage, and the remembered voice of her dead husband. Opening with a death in winter, the author renders a tender work of mourning which is moving but not dispiriting. She uses the words of a much loved husband - sometimes affectionate, sometimes querulous - to invoke his solid presence.
