5.0 out of 5 stars 100% Hands-Down Must-Have, December 7, 2000
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Women on Divorce: A Bedside Companion (Paperback)
When my ex-boyfriend and i separated, i frantically hit the library. I was hoping to discover a book that would help me understand what had happened in my relationship, what was the cause of its failure. Among the many books that i digested during that infamous, awful summer, i stumbled upon this one, by far the best one. Ellen Gilchrist's essay, "Meditations on Divorce", has the largest percentage of truths per square inch of page that i have ever seen. This piece alone is reason enough to purchase the book, in my opinion. Susan Spano's essay is the one that touched me the most, because her comments on the concept of morality put the finger right on the wound for me. Morality, a topic that made her friends (and mine) cringe, but that was at the very core of her problems. My third favorite essay is Anne Roiphe's, a revision of a divorce that never was but that should have been (her own parents'). All in all, this is a fantastic collection that helped me immensely, and that i will always cherish as one of the greatest books of essays i've ever read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Book to help you though divorce, August 12, 2005
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I saw An Historical Romance in Redbook. Read it (I was contemplating divorce at the time) and immediately bought the whole book. The essays in this book did more than any other book to help me through my divorce. I did keep it by my bedside for those three am crying jags. I still find inspirations in the essays.
