During the years Joan Anderson was a loving wife and supportive mother, she had slowly and unconsciously replaced her own dreams with the needs of her family. With her sons grown, she realised that the family no longer centred on the home she provided and her relationship with her husband had become stagnant. Like many women in her situation, Joan had forgotten about her own needs and had no fulfilling goals for her future. It seemed the best part of her life was finished. Shocking herself as much as her husband, she decided to retreat alone to the family cottage on Cape Cod. At first casting around for direction, Joan soon began to take pleasure in her surroundings and call on resources she didn't know she had. Over the course of a year she gradually discovered that her life as an 'unfinished woman' was full of possibilities. Out of that magical, difficult, transformative year came A YEAR BY THE SEA, a record of her experiences and a treasury of wisdom for readers. Beautifully written, this book will inspire the reader to set out on their own journey of self-discovery and find the courage to recreate their own life.

Rediscovering yourself!
This woman is a friend, like Madeleine Chapsal - journalists who's not afraid of talking about emotions - writes for women and at a certain age, it's important to rediscover oneself and vital to lose one's hold - Thanks to Sarah Ban Breathnach who is responsible for this. I loved what she told about Anderson and thanks to Anderson who made me discover this great lady: Joan Erikson and thanks to Erikson who...... thank you all!!! This book is a good companion, it helps in feeling better each day - take it with you!
