Augusten Burroughs, #1 New York Times bestselling author of 'Running With Scissors'
'Brilliant, poignant and completely unique. Suzanne Finnamore has refined her caustic wit to the point where it is now an assault rifle perfectly aimed at both herself and marauding spouses throughout America. Her voice captivates even the most jaded lovers.'
Haven Kimmel, #1 New York Times bestselling author of 'A Girl Named Zippy'
'So Perfectly Right. I loved it, loved it, loved it. p.s. Loved it'
Darin Strauss, author of 'Chang and Eng'
'Heart-rending and beautiful; Finnamore is a master storyteller and this time, the story is her own. She is that rarest of things on today's literary landscape-- a truly great writer, the real deal. This book will never let you forget it'
Judith Moore, bestselling author of 'Fat Girl'
'Powerful. SPLIT reads like a greased bullet'
Evening Standard
'Sharp and incisive... a rapid and compelling read. Suzanne has a natty turn of phrase and writes in a style not unlike Augusten Burroughs'
Daily Mail
'Vivid and raw... Finnamore's story will certainly resonate with anyone - female or male - whose spouse has made a mockery of their wedding vows'
Good Housekeeping
'Wired with a humour and honesty that topples into madness, this story leaves you always on her side'
Sunday Express
'Through the five stages, the reader of SPLIT feels what Finnamore feels as she moves from denial through to, finally, acceptance'
Vanessa Feltz, BBC Radio London
'A runaway bestseller'
He came home from work. She fixed him a martini. He said she looked beautiful. And then he asked for a divorce.
Suddenly Suzanne Finnamore was alone, with no idea of what to do next. How would she tell their friends he'd left her behind? What would she tell her young son? She downed the mandarin-flavoured vodka, she faced the news of her ex-husband's infidelity and suffered Valentine's Day alone. And with a lot of grit and her whiskey-toting mother's help, she found the hope and humour to pull through.
From her darkest moments to the eventual freedom of life on her own, Suzanne's story will speak to anyone whose heart's been stamped on - and needed the strength to start afresh.
