Coles The Widow's List: Poems About Grief at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
The Widow’s List is a searing, intimate long poem born from the long shadow of losing a beloved partner. Written in the wake and wakefulness of grief, it traces the quiet, relentless ways absence reshapes a life. Here, mourning is both solitary and shared: a private language spoken in public spaces, a daily inventory of what remains and what will never return. The poem moves through the paradoxes of loss and how it can feel unbearably heavy and eerily hollow at once, how it interrupts time while insisting life goes on, how it lives beside you, breathing when you can’t. With clarity and emotional precision, The Widow’s List captures the moments we rarely name: the daze, the rituals, the small survivals, the sudden surges of memory that make the ordinary luminous and the familiar strange. It is not a guide through grief, but a companion within it honest, unflinching, and deeply humane. For anyone who has loved and lost, this book offers recognition, language, and a quiet, steady presence in the ongoing work of carrying both fullness and emptiness at once.
