annegreen's review against another edition
3.0
A sensitive and emotionally intelligent portrait of a woman whose husband leaves her for another woman. Ella, the middle aged protagonist, long term wife, mother of three grown children grapples with the devastation of abandonment while at the same time learning often painful, often encouraging lessons about herself, her children and what it is to be a woman alone. There isn’t much in the way of plot or action - it’s a “quiet” book - one which will appeal to those who love to read about life as it is.
