The Wife by Meg Wolitzer
THE WIFE is the story of the long and stormy marriage between a world-famous novelist, Joe Castleman, and his wife Joan and the secret they've kept for decades. The novel opens just as Joe is about to receive a prestigious international award, The Helsinki Prize, to honour his career as one of America's preeminent novelists of the Mailer-Bellow-Updike school. But this isn't a book for writers; it's a book for readers, for people who are interested in questions such as: Is there a 'male' voice and a 'female' voice? Do men and women see the world differently, and how? THE WIFE takes on these issues, which are relevant not only in a writer's marriage, but in any marriage, where issues of gender and power are sure to arise.The Interestings, The Uncoupling, The Ten-Year Nap, The Position, The Wife, and Sleepwalking are among Meg Wolitzer's New York Times bestselling novels. She's also the author of Belzhar, a young adult novel. Wolitzer is a New York City resident.
