About the Book
|
After the death of his wife, Leonard, a retired mail carrier, can't find interest in anything. He's grumpy and keeps everyone at a distance until his wife magically appears on his television screen.
With her encouragement he looks back on his life, and accepts its joys and adversities, including family mental illness and addiction, and learns to understand his children and their needs.
A devoted housekeeper and an ebullient granddaughter help him to accept and love his family.
