All the Things We Never Knew by Sheila Hamilton 616.89 Ham

 
What a powerful book.  If you read the jacket of the book you will know before you begin that her husband dies weeks after being diagnosed with bipolar disorder.  The book begins with a phone call that Ms. Hamilton receives.  Her husband has broken into a home and stolen a gun.  The rest of the book recounts how she ended up at this point.  We learn how their love story began and how it began to unravel through the years.  Looking back there were lots of red flags but they are hard to see at the time but obvious in retrospect.  Mental health is a problem and the stress on a marriage is unbelievable.  It is a very readable book with a heart-wrenching description of one woman's journey.
