He travels over hills, through valleys, by streams, past farms and villages. At Portsmouth Market he sells his goods, one by one - even his beloved ox. Then, with his pockets full of coins, he wanders through the market, buying provisions for his family, and returns to his home. And the cycle begins again.… (altro)

An astonishingly beautiful volume that had me in tears as I read it, something that I can't recall ever happening before. These pieces will resonate powerfully with anyone who has helped someone die.
