Description

Joe and Joan Castleman are en route to Helsinki, each with their own thoughts. For Joe, it's about receiving a prestigious literary prize; for Joan, it's about leaving him behind. Behind the compromises, disappointment, and disillusionment lies a secret that has been quietly building. Joan has played the role of supportive wife, turning a blind eye to Joe's misdemeanours while being the keystone of his success. But what happens when she can no longer keep up this charade? A complex exploration of marriage, family life, and the secrets we keep, The Wife is a thought-provoking novel about the compromises we make for love and the consequences that follow.
