The Story of Arthur Truluv by Elizabeth Berg
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
What a lovely story. Arthur has lost his wife and visits her grave every day and takes his lunch to have with her. During his lunch break with his wife, he becomes aware of a teenaged girl named Maddy who is also spending time in the cemetery.
Arthur is such a lovely man and does his best to befriend this lonely girl, as well as befriending his next door neighbour, Lucille, who is very lonely and at very loose ends.
This little trio finds ways to help each other. A very heartwarming story. I read this almost straight through.
