A Moment of Grace by Patrick Dillon
Six months later, at Christmas, Patrick started to write. A Moment of Grace is the searing, tender account of Patricks life with Nicola and her illness, and his life after her loss. Heartbreaking, life-affirming and truly unforgettable, A Moment of Grace is one mans journey to find life after his wifes death.
A profoundly moving and impassioned account of a 28-year romance-- Hannah Beckerman * The Observer *
When he reaches Nicola's last days, his phrases rise to the occasion and reduce you to a pulp. -- Tim de Lisle * The Tablet *
A Moment of Grace is one of the more beautiful books I’ve read: raw, gracious, candid and true. It is about the last 13 months of Nicola’s life; from the ordinary London day she was diagnosed to the time she took her last breath. It manages to be an uplifting book about tragedy – because there is such romance in the mundanity of survival and such ferocity in the way this one little family love one another. -- Kate Leaver * British Vogue *
