Novel of unexpected widowhood and grief by the prolific romance novelist. However, as Stella Suberman notes in a contemporary review titled "How to Read Without Thinking," "Blaze of Sunlight is not intended to stimulate or challenge. It is intended to be a comfortable book, to be put down at the ring of the telephone and to be picked up for the 15 minutes after the dinner pudding has been made and before the baby wakes up"--a pre-Feminine Mystique evaluation if ever there was one.
