She was in her early thirties when she moved to Paris, married a dashing fellow journalist, and became a celebrated author. Yet now, it’s her husband who churns out a book a year and wears earplugs around the house. Her adolescent children are more French than American, and her Parisian neighbors haven’t gotten any more welcoming. Once a prolific writer, she has slipped in status to her family’s head of purchasing and quality control.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTired of feeling unappreciated—and tempted by an unexpected offer from a man from her past—Druckerman decides to try on the famously flexible French approach to monogamy (“What is fidelity, really? Isn’t it to be true to yourself?”). She grants herself a one-off fiftieth birthday present: a secret afternoon with “the banker.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhat ensues is more than she ever expected. Is this radical self-care or relationship suicide? Have honesty-obsessed Americans been approaching coupledom all wrong? Can an American in Paris ever truly become French?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Monogamy Prize\u003c\/i\u003e is a disarmingly intimate and deeply funny account of one woman’s passage and a bold exploration of the rules of modern marriage.","brand":"Penguin Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48392087372031,"sku":"9780593655368","price":31.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9780593655368_s600x595.jpg?v=1777912530","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9780593655368","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
