The Other Wife
''Extraordinary. A story about belonging in liminal spaces, and longing for things seemingly just out of reach. A searing, beautiful book.'' Kiley Reid, author of Such a Fun AgeSusan ‘Zuzu’ Braeburn is almost forty. She has the life she’s always dreamed of – a beautiful house, a child, a successful partner. But something between her and Agnes has been off for a long time, and she can’t help but wonder ‘what if’. What if she had chosen to live with her father instead of her mother after their divorce? To pursue art over law? And, most importantly, to pursue her feelings for her male best friend from college, Cash, instead of marrying Agnes? When an unexpected loss takes her back to her hometown, over a single wintery weekend, the questions in Zuzu’s mind become too loud to ignore. She grapples with the choices she’s made and the knowledge that she doesn’t have infinite time to make changes in her life. The Other Wife speaks to unfulfilled desires and the euphoric nostalgia that’s particular to the beginning of middle age; it is heartfelt and daring in its reckoning with the quest for joy.
Rok, který nás změnil
Každý z nás má někoho, kdo byl kdysi náš nejbližší – a koho jsme ztratili dřív, než jsme si to stihli vyříkat.
Emma a Lise bývaly nerozlučné kamarádky – dokud je život nerozdělil. Po osmnácti letech se náhle znovu potkávají. V kavárně na Honeybee Place se mezi vůní kávy a koláčů začínají znovu rozplétat nitky dávného přátelství.
Z Anglie až do Paříže a zpátky – tohle je příběh o přátelství, které přežilo roky mlčení. O návratech, které si neplánujeme. A o pravdách, které je těžké vyslovit – i po tolika letech.
