Publisher's Synopsis
There are those romances that make you feel happy, those that make you cry, and those that leave you touched. There are romances of note in the world of fiction, but, in a case where he takes a break from the imaginary worlds he created, Benjamin Thurber tells the remarkable story of romance between the two people he knew best, his wife, Amanda, and himself. He tells the story of the times of stress, the times of peace, the times of sorrow and the times of joy, he tells the times where their romance was challenged and the times it inspired. And he tells the tragedy of the sudden separation one February night. But not a permanent one. There is a statement at the end of most fairy tales, and it would apply here. Even though they have been separated by death, they will live "happily ever after."
