Description
A poignant and deeply personal account of love and loss, When the Feast Is Finished is a moving tribute to Margaret Aldiss, Brian Wilson Aldiss' wife of thirty years. Based on their private journals, this book chronicles her final months after a diagnosis of pancreatic cancer. The author draws on these intimate entries to create a heartbreaking portrait of the sustaining force of love in the face of devastating illness. Alongside Margaret's bravely honest reflections, the author shares his own thoughts and feelings as they navigated those last precious months together.
