It has been forty-four hollow days since Henry died. The phone has stopped ringing; people no longer make spontaneous visits. Having paid their respects, friends and neighbors have moved on from their concern and back to daily routines, removed from her grief and mourning. Inside the house she and Henry had shared, Paige sat in solitude. Alone. Twenty-four hours in which she struggles to come to terms with the death of her partner of forty years, and the choices she made in life. Whiplashing between memories of joy and sadness, anger and love, with the simple touch of household objects evoking recollections of devastating clarity, Paige begins a journey, spiraling downward to a dark place seemingly beyond redemption. An emotionally charged, often disturbing study in the pathology of bereavement, Alone. is a window into one woman's battle with herself, and the 'unique universality' of loss.
