Klappentext zu „Wife 22 “
A deliciously revealing expose about all the juicy stuff that matters: parenting, sex, aging, happiness, security, and the ongoing tug of war between love and marriage. When Alice Buckle agrees to anonymously participate in a study on Marriage in the 21st Century, she has no idea how profoundly that decision will change her life. As she struggles to provide honest answers to the questionnaires administered by a Researcher known as 101, she experiences a reawakening.It's been years since anybody has asked her such intimate questions and listened so closely to what she thinks, feels, hopes, fears and dreams. Her husband Williams gave up a long time ago! Confession is a powerful aphrodisiac and over time her feelings for Researcher 101 deepen. But it's a safe crush, right? Because they only communicate through letters.
But Alice realises that she's falling in love with 'him' and has a heart wrenching decision to make!

Rezension zu „Wife 22 “
'I loved it, loved it, loved it. It's so funny and true and sad and real and clever and of-the-moment. Also so hopeful and wise and ultimately heartwarming.' Marian Keyes 'Wife 22 depicts the ridiculous ease with which we reveal our innermost thoughts to complete strangers but not those we know and love' Vogue (Australia) 'With a quirky narrative that mixes Facebook statues, questionnaires, Google searches and chatty prose, this is a funny and poignant story that explores how confession can sometimes be the ultimate aphrodisiac' Easy Living '"Did I really try and pass off Ikea meatballs as my own? Did I really admit to our friends that we have sex only once a month?" Just minor questions for Alice Buckle as her life scrambles' Sainsbury's Magazine 'In the crowded pool of novels about midlife crises, Wife 22 has the buoyancy of water wings' Washington Post
