Both drink. Both smoke. Both work, Patricia as a head copywriter at a major department store. When it comes to sex with other people, both believe in the honesty policy. Until they dont. Or, at least, until Peter doesnt-and a shell-shocked, lovesick Patricia finds herself starting out all over again, but this time around as a different kind of single woman: the ex-wife.An instant bestseller when it was published anonymously in 1929, Ex-Wife captures the speakeasies, night clubs, and parties that defined Jazz Age New York-alongside the morning-after aspirin and calisthenics, the lunch-hour visits to the gym, the girl-talk, and the freedoms and anguish of solitude. It also casts a cool eye on the bedrooms and the doctors offices where, despite rising hemlines, the men still call the shots. The result is a unique view of what its author Ursula Parrott called the era of the one-night stand: an era very much like our own.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Miakarts Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49683217481968,"sku":"NEW194602256X","price":21.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/ethereallybeautiful.com\/products\/ex-wife-mcnally-editions-17","provider":"Ethereally Beautiful","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
