 At a Loss for Words - Diane Schoemperlen
She wasn’t looking for love. As a successful writer with an established career, a comfortable home and a supportive group of friends, her life was full. But then, thirty years after he broke her heart the first time, he walked into a book
signing and back into her life. Spurred on by the idyll of a first love made good, they reconnect through emails. But, strangely, love has left her with a nasty case of writer’s block. At a Loss for Words is another brilliant
expression of Diane Schoemperlen’s gift for
building the minutiae of everyday life into a
profound understanding of women, men, love
and imagination.
‘There are many laughs in At a Loss for
Words that have tears underneath. This a
book for those who love words, particularly
those who have also loved a person in vain.’ -
Mary Soderstrom, Quill and Quire
‘Bittersweet comedy of love and loss.’ - Toronto Globe and Mail
