Synopsis

A moving and honest memoir in the tradition of Are You Somebody? Aileen lay dying in bed beside me. I looked out through the window. There was still life outside. The landscape of the rooftops on Winton Avenue was as it always has been. The weather and seasons brought changes, but there was the same vista of houses and gardens. She would go, but they would go on: sucking in life and death. Relentlessly honest about his feelings and his failings as a husband and a lover, and touching on everything from jealousy to the tragic loss of his child, Tom Inglis provides a raw but authentic portrait of a man struggling to comprehend love, death and the complexities of living. In this moving memoir Inglis recounts the story of his life and the love he shared with Aileen, who died from breast cancer in 2005
