Our Woman refuses to be sunk by what life is about to serve her. Shes just caught her son Jimmy in the barn with another man. Shes been accosted by Red the Twit, who claims to have done the unmentionable with her husband. And now her sons gone and joined the only group that will have him: an army division on its way to Afghanistan. Setting aside her prim and proper ways, Our Woman promptly embarks on an odyssey of her own one that forces her to look grief in the eye and come face-to-face with the mad agony of longing.

Such a delight to be inside the quick mind of “our woman” Philomena—especially after the confusion of Lucy Ellmann‘s housewife in Ducks, Newburyport. Philomena is in rural Ireland, grieving the death of her husband and her gay son. The story is both poignant and hilarious. Irish Canadian author Anakana Schofield narrates her own perfectly charming #audiobook.

Cathythoughts Oh must look more closely at this for #ReadingCanada 👍🏻✨❤️ 4y

#audiocrafting candied violets

TheLudicReader When I was a kid, my grandmother always put fresh violets on my birthday cake (chocolate cake with boiled icing). She died many years ago, but my aunt resurrected the tradition for my birthday last week. Such a pang of nostalgia. 4y
