β¦ Synopsis
When novelist M.T. (Jean) Dohaney's husband died suddenly, she was plunged into the most painful experience of her life. Faced with a tumult of emotions and sudden responsibilities, she turned to her writing for solace and began a journal. In her journal, Dohaney's sharp sense of humour and her impatience with conventional pieties lay bare the depth of her bereavement, yet at the same time they express the life force within her. When Things Get Back to Normal is a compassionate yet bracing companion for those struck down by loss, which indirectly gives practical advice about the changes that come with widowhood. M.T. Dohaney was born in Point Verde, Newfoundland. The author of several novels, she is adapting one for a feature film. Death, Grieving, Personal Memoir, Canadian Author.
