{"product_id":"books-happens-every-day-by-isabel-gillies","title":"Happens Every Day","description":"\u003cb\u003eIsabel Gillies had a wonderful life--a handsome, intelligent, loving husband who was a professor; two glorious toddlers; a beautiful house in their Midwestern college town; the time and place to express all her ebullience and affection and optimism.\u003c\/b\u003e Suddenly, the life Isabel had made crumbled. Her husband, Josiah, announced that he was leaving her and their two young sons. \"Happens every day,\" said a friend.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Far from a self-pitying diatribe, \u003ci\u003eHappens Every Day\u003c\/i\u003e reads like an intimate conversation between friends. It is 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.","brand":"World of Books ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53673465512209,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781439126622.jpg?v=1781525895","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-gb\/products\/books-happens-every-day-by-isabel-gillies","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
