Related By Water (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780645994001)

As the first painful waves of grief take root in green-fingered Frances' life without her famed husband Jack, seasons continue. Birth, growth, death and never-ending flux sometimes drag her, sometimes flow her through seasons of surprise as she navigates widowhood, romance and new grandmothering.

In a life layered with her relationships, her inner world and the calm pond, Frances charts the cycles of change. As sure as her flowering and dying garden, she unfolds in new ways, deepening her commitment to her essential self and unearthing her personal values in a world inviting her beyond her comfort zone.

This story, set in the new post-pandemic, tech-revolutionary era, traverses the way in which the Baby Boomer generation find themselves passing through another threshold of rapidly altering societal roles and stereotypes, in the third phase of life. A beautiful tale of family, woven with different cultures, the natural world and life cycles.
