review 1: Sheila Hancock is a well-known British actress and comedienne in her own right, and was also the wife of John Thaw, the original 'Morse' on TV. This book is a memoir of how she coped with his loss, and it reflects the woman that I always hoped she was, gutsy, vulnerable and funny. It follows her previous memoir of life with Thaw, which I haven't read, but I didn't need to know about him to enjoy it. Her attempts to travel with singles (at a fairly advanced age) and other ways of distracting herself are both funny and touching.
review 2: This is Hancock's 2nd book following 'the Two of Us' - in this she describes her life following the death of her husband. I found her very honest writing about how she felt about finding out she had German ancestry and having li... moreved through the war with her family, she was very candid about her own prejudices in very open and frank way. Not as good as her first book but still a pleasant enough read. less
