Grey Divorce: The Right to Mourn

Ann Evans and her husband were thriving. Or, so Ann thought. They were members of a vibrant, progressive Christian congregation where her husband was minister and she was an engaged partner, helping facilitate workshops and selling his books. An ordained minister herself, Ann also offered help where needed. Suddenly, on an extended trip, her husband blew it all up. "It's over," he said. Before she could make sense of what he was saying, he was out the door and into the arms of a younger woman.In her first memoir, Ann lays bare her painful journey from despair to recovery, offering a companion to others experiencing grey divorce and all forms of grief that descend in later life.
