Description
Ruth Appelbaum's life as a newlywed in 1960s America is one of perfect wives and imperfect lives. She struggles to balance her own desires with the expectations of those around her, particularly her mother-in-law. As Ruth navigates this complex world, she forms an unlikely friendship with Carrie Blum, who harbours secrets that threaten to upend their seemingly perfect lives. With the help of Lillian Diamond's etiquette lessons, they begin to challenge the status quo and discover what they truly expect from themselves. This novel explores the complexities of female relationships and the power of female bonds in a time when societal expectations were rigidly defined.
