Description
Behind the public face of marriage lies a complex web of secrets and compromises. In "The Wife", Meg Wolitzer masterfully exposes the private world behind closed doors, revealing the truth that often lies beneath the surface of partnership. A husband's success is rarely built without the support of his wife. For too long, Joan Castleman has played the role of supportive partner, turning a blind eye to her husband's misdemeanours and subjugating her own talents in the process. But on one fateful flight, Joan begins to plot her escape from this stifling arrangement. This is an acerbic and astonishing take on marriage, one that will resonate with anyone who has ever felt trapped by the expectations of others or struggled to find their place within a partnership.
