For Jack Lovett, the sudden death of his wife unleashed the sort of grief that went far beyond the usual boundaries - into unexplored zones of doubt, confusion and superheated passion... What is it about the sexual component of grief? How can it be (and it is) that in the hollow-pitted emptiness of loss, the tears and exhaustion, the grim and gray desiccation of death there is this crazy sexiness?... It's raining and I'm sick with a cold and my car smells of dirty socks and I'm disgusted with myself I'm so horny. It's a chain-reaction collision on a highway, grief and horniness racing along bumper-to-bumper until the accidents happen, it's all a sequence of errors... THE WIDOWER draws us into the wounded head and heart of one vulnerable man -- and a series of wildly unlikely and ironic adventures with too many casseroles, too many women, hostile in-laws, unwelcome surprises at work, and a budding love interest who just might be able to understand why he is the way he is.
