Love. Loss. Life. (Used)

Journalist Monica Nicolson's memoir recounts losing both her husbands — award-winning photographers Ken Oosterbroek and Steven Hilton-Barber — and her infant son Benjamin within a single decade. Spanning war zones in Mozambique, Zimbabwe, Uganda and Egypt as well as 1990s South Africa's political transition, it is a survival story told in her characteristically wry voice, exploring how humour and female friendship carried her through devastating loss.
