Oliver's Story by Eric Segal

Following the sudden death of his young wife, a privileged but devastated man struggles through grief, anger, and self-recrimination as he confronts the emptiness of his former life, clashes with family and friends, pursues work and a tentative new relationship, and gradually learns—through setbacks and painful revelations—to accept loss and allow himself the possibility of love and hope again.
