Description

A brilliant and provocative novel by Gail Godwin explores the complexities of marriage and relationships. When Magda Danvers' grave illness puts her marriage to its ultimate test, she continues to inspire those around her with her thoughts and ideas. Meanwhile, Alice Henry seeks solace in the charismatic wife's presence, hoping to discover the secret to a perfect marriage. As Magda's condition worsens, the lines between love, loss, and sacrifice become increasingly blurred. With its compelling writing and remarkably skilled storytelling, this novel delves into the human experience with wisdom and moral depth. A big, sumptuous book that is both fascinating and thought-provoking, The Good Husband is a masterful exploration of what it means to be in love and to care for one another.
