“If there is justice, it will do very, very well. I like this book so much that I don’t want to quote, summarize, interpret—I just hope, if you’re in any kind of relationship, that you’ll get it and read it.”—Jesse Kornbluth, The Huffington Post
“With amiability, wit, and a modicum of self-pity, Laura Munson's memoir reminded me of the twenty-one jars of organic tomato sauce she and her children hand-made. A chapter is like a jar lid: if it doesn't pop as the contents cool, the seal is faulty and the sauce is worthless. Exhausted from their all-day effort, mother and kids sipped hot chocolates and listened as twenty-one jars cooled. To their satisfaction, they counted twenty-one distinct pops. In reading this brave memoir I counted about the same.”—David James Duncan, author of The Brothers K and God Laughs & Plays
Hi, I’m Laura Munson and I’m a writer. I wrote an essay for the Modern Love column of the New York Times (published on August 2, 2009) and it changed my life. Based on the hundreds of comments I’ve received, it’s changed many lives.
