Book Synopsis


Trade Review
Lavoie’s fiercely hilarious take on the pains and triumphs of marital abandonment feels perfectly right. * Toronto Star *
Lavoie keeps her novel short, offering chaotic humour and snappy observation to balance the pain and loss . . . A readable, recognizable, tragicomic account of coping with domestic disaster. * Kirkus Reviews *
With great humour and tenderness, Marie-Renée Lavoie recounts Diane’s journey to regain trust in both herself and the people around her . . . A piercing commentary on gender, marriage, and the nuances of self-love. * Toronto Life *
A provocative, funny, and candid story. * Winnipeg Free Press *
The characters are vivid and entertaining . . . The scenes and dialogue can be laugh-out-loud funny, and the narrative hums along smoothly, facilitated by the fine translation from French by Arielle Aaronson. * Montreal Review of Books *
