Isabel Gillies had a wonderful life -- a handsome, intelligent, loving husband; two glorious toddlers; a beautiful house; the time and place to express all her ebullience and affection and optimism Suddenly, that life was over Her husband, Josiah, announced that he was leaving her and their two young sons When Josiah took a teaching job at a Midwestern ожсбя college, Isabel and their sons moved with him from New York City to Ohio, where Isabel taught acting, threw herself into the college community, and delighted in the less-scheduled lives of toddlers raised away from the city But within a few months, the marriage was over The life Isabel had made crumbled "Happens every day," said a friend Far from a self-pitying diatribe, Happens Every Day reads like an intimate conversation between friends Gillies has written a dizzyingly candid, compulsively readable, ultimately redemptive story about love, marriage, family, heartbreak, and the unexpected turns of a life On the one hand, reading this book is like watching a train wreck On the other hand, as Gillies herself says, it is about trying to light a candle instead of cursing the darkness, and loving your life even if it has slipped away Hers is a remarkable new voice -- instinctive, funny, and irresistible.  Издание столь2009 г Твердый переплет, 343 стр ISBN 1410417786.
