Tell Me Good Things: On love, death and marriage by James Runcie (Bloomsbury, £12.99 (Church Times SPECIAL OFFER PRICE £10.99); 978-1-5266-5544-8).

“James Runcie’s wife Marilyn Imrie died in August 2020. Their 35-year marriage had been miraculously happy, until, in the last two years of Marilyn’s life, she descended into the pain and humiliation of motor neurone disease. In Tell Me Good Things, Runcie tells the story of Marilyn’s illness and death - in all its moments of tragedy, rage, farce and surrealness - while painting a vivid portrait of her life and their marriage.”
