The Widower's Son is a 1976 novel by the British writer Alan Sillitoe. It tells the story of a man who leaves the Nottinghamshire coal mines after his friend is killed in accident and, to the disgust of his father, joins the army. When his wife dies he has to bring up their son alone. It was reviewed in the New Statesman by Julian Barnes who, while more sympathetic than he had been to a recent novel by another of the 'angry young men' John Braines Waiting for Sheila, claimed that the author's "prose still tends to confuse awkwardness with integrity". rdf:langString
