#32, Enon, by Paul Harding

This book chronicles the first year of a father's grief at the sudden accidental death of his 13-year-old daughter.  His wife leaves him, he gets hooked on painkillers, and explores the depths of despair amid fantasies and dreams about his past, the past of his town, and what might have been.  I really enjoyed this book; it's not as depressing as I've probably made it sound.
