The World Is a Wedding by Wendy Jones

The World Is a Wedding by Wendy Jones

Set in 1926, two years after the end of The Thoughts and Happenings of Wilfred Price, Purveyor of Superior Funerals, Wendy Jones' The World is a Wedding finds Wilfred Price married to Flora Myfanwy and trying to be the perfect husband. His efforts only intensify when he learns that Flora is expecting. But something doesn't feel right to Flora: she doesn't feel at home. Meanwhile, Grace (to whom Wilfred was very briefly married before he met Flora) has fled Narberth for London, trying to escape what has happened to her and the secret she carries because of it. But secrets are not so easily escaped--and Grace's will affect Wilfred and Flora, too.

A sophisticated comedy of manners, The World is a Wedding captures life in a small town in Wales and explores the complexities of marriage, motherhood, and masculinity and femininity with equal wit and insight.

Wendy Jones is my name. I was born and reared in West Sussex before moving to Birmingham to pursue a degree in medicine, where I met my spouse. With our two filthy boys, we currently live in a small village in Herefordshire. Not long after my youngest son started school, I discovered a passion for writing. And if you were to ask me what prompted me to make the change, I'd tell you that it all began with a dream.
