Dancing in My Nightgown: The Rhythms of Widowhood

Inspiring, hopeful, humorous

By Betty Auchard
(Reviewed by Charles Hayes)

Inspiring, existentially hopeful, and worth reading a second time, this book succeeds on several levels:

  • It offers hope to widows and widowers,
  • demonstrates to would-be writers that it’s never too late to start a writing career,
  • and exemplifies writing so in touch with the reader that it reminds me of the personalizing prose of A River Runs Through It.
Dancing in My Nightgown: The Rhythms of Widowhood by Betty Auchard

Although there are no parallels, Betty Auchard’s writing will strike you as that of a letter from a relative.

Auchard’s grief and the bittersweet revelations she experiences while progressing through widowhood are both sad and humorous. She has the rare talent of being able to engage us in experiencing her loss as our loss and her triumph as ours. The demographics for this book are such that it will likely be in greater demand 10 years from now than it is today.
