Review: Comforting Solace for Loss of a Spouse - I lost my husband of 34 years last year to cancer, and when Donald Hall died recently I learned that he had suffered the same loss. It has been clear to me for awhile that for me there have been two distinct parts of the loss. One has been the obvious and immense emptiness left without my soulmate. But the other is traumatic and different. It is that time when my husband was ill and I was trying to both care for him and keep him with me against all odds. This gem of a book speaks to both our long life together plus the months of impending loss and increasing illness. To me, the shock of hearing the diagnosis and the trauma of the ensuing months is never spoken of, but Hall has written beautiful and honest poetry to help us open up and really feel that time. And now I am navigating life without him, and Hall's poetry shows me that I am not alone. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #219,650 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #180 in Death, Grief & Loss Poetry (Books) #402 in Poetry by Women #5,423 in Memoirs (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (130) | | Dimensions | 6 x 0.25 x 9 inches | | Edition | First Edition | | ISBN-10 | 0395957656 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0395957653 | | Item Weight | 2.31 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 96 pages | | Publication date | April 14, 1999 | | Publisher | Ecco | ## Images ![Without: Poems – The Poet Donald Hall Mourns His Wife Jane Kenyon - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/714kufr-MaL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ beautiful and heartwrenching *by M***I on July 10, 2015* How Donald Hall manages to capture the pain, fear, loneliness, and desolation of losing someone you love, all the while doing it with honesty, grace, and lyricism is testimony to his deep love and noble spirit, and his poetic genius.

And now I am navigating life without him, and Hall's poetry shows me that I am not alone. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Mourning *by S***) on August 4, 2018* A powerful jumble of poems (sometimes called "letters" in Hall's parlance) re-experiencing the death of his younger lover, conscious always that he "should" have died before her. Poignant detail and when maudlin, appropriately so. Utterly heartbreaking and yet funny, aS when Hall and his dog Gus hike up to her grave and he feels the need to specify which of the two pissed on her tombstone. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/18116169-without-poems-the-poet-donald-hall-mourns-his-wife-jane](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/18116169-without-poems-the-poet-donald-hall-mourns-his-wife-jane) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-08*
