The answer to the question posed in the title of this book would seem obvious right? The death of a spouse is about as far removed from funny as it gets and Sandra E Manning readily admits that she experienced a chronic sense of humour malfunction when she lost her 57-year-old husband to gastric cancer in 2014.

After a failed attempt at joining her husband of 36 years only a few weeks after his funeral, Sandra took the decision to train as a laughter therapy facilitator in 2016. Whilst her own proclivity to laugh at life even in the darkest of times had been battered and bruised she used the power of laughter to help her to heal, and became a co-founder of GOWNS at gownsgroup.co.uk where she helps other widows and widowers to understand why it is that laughter is often referred to as the best medicine.

This brutally honest, yet ultimately uplifting account, is written by an author who uses her well-developed sense of humour to illuminate a subject not naturally associated with hilarity on any level. It is a book which will inevitably elicit tears of sadness but also those caused by the inclusion of many laugh out loud moments too. The reader is taken on an emotional roller coaster ride which is an essential trip for anyone who despairs that they will ever hear the sound of their own laughter again.
