Summary
About the author
About the narrator

How does it feel when your partner dies? How do you keep going, even when it all seems pointless? How can you cope with the emptiness that is still there even years afterwards? Ten women talk about their experiences of losing their husbands, how they coped with grief, and how they have rebuilt their lives. One woman was left to run a farm with very little experience; another lost her husband when she was 30 and had young children to care for; another was widowed after years of coping with a poor relationship. When Your Partner Dies will comfort, help and inspire any woman who has lost her partner.

Self-Improvement Family & Relationships Nonfiction Medicine

Richard Stanton is a journalist. He originally began interviewing women who had lost their husbands for his masters thesis, and he discovered there were no books on the subject. Many of the women mentioned that they found it hard to discuss their ongoing grief with family and friends, and that they had never told anyone. This inspired him to gather some of these stories in a book so that other women could benefit from their experience.

Catherine Milte has worked both on stage and in television, where her credits include Blue Heelers, Neighbours, Halifax FP and The Fast Lane. She is also familiar to listeners of ABC Radio National's The Book Reading and Poetica and is a recipient of the TDK Australian Audio Book Award for Narrator of the Year.
