Description

Ed Becker spent his life teaching and helping people, but when his wife dies, he’s left bereft but not quite alone. He can still talk to and see his wife, but no one else can. It’s some solace, but he’s not even sure she’s real. Still, he keeps to his routines and tries to soldier on for the sake of his adult kids and grandkids. But when Ed meets a Korean English student through his new job, tutoring English over the phone, his life begins to change in strange and dangerous ways.

The Funny Thing About . . . is a story of love that not even death can end. It’s a story about the sacrifices we make for those we love, our spouses, our children, and how these transform us.
