Unlike anything Joyce Carol Oates has written before, A Widow s Story is the universally acclaimed author s poignant, intimate memoir about the unexpected death of Raymond Smith, her husband of forty-six years, and its wrenching, surprising aftermath. A recent recipient of National Book Critics Circle Ivan Sandrof Lifetime Achievement Award, Oates, whose novels (Blonde, The Gravedigger s Daughter, Little Bird of Heaven, etc. ) rank among the very finest in contemporary American fiction, offers an achingly personal story of love and loss. A Widow s Story is a literary memoir on a par with The Year of Magical Thinking by Joan Didion and Calvin Trillin s About Alice. '
