Grey Divorce: The Right to Mourn

Ann Evans and her husband were thriving. Or, so Ann thought. They were members of a vibrant, progressive Christian congregation where her husband was minister and she was an engaged partner, helping facilitate workshops and selling his books. An ordained minister herself, Ann also offered help where needed. Suddenly, on an extended trip, her husband blew it all up. "It's over," he said. Before she could make sense of what he was saying, he was out the door and into the arms of a younger woman.
In her first memoir, Ann lays bare her painful journey from despair to recovery, offering a companion to others experiencing grey divorce and all forms of grief that descend in later life.
“Ann Evans not only takes the reader on her journey of recovery but more importantly, shares with us her profound thoughts about spirituality, forgiveness, friendship (her angels), the legal nightmare, and retirement. She opens her heart so that we can understand at increasingly deeper levels how to make sense, move on, and rebuild a life no matter what it brings our way. A lesson we all need to learn.”
