Divorce, dips, dives and daffodils, Ruth Badanes Reiner's new novel, is about resiliency and self-acceptance. Deceptively simple and easy to read, it is built upon layers of depth. It's a travel guide around the limits of life, and an inspiration for the replacement of broken dreams. Written primarily from a woman's point of view, its chapters take you through vignettes of the separation process: How do we manage that first night with a new man? How does love for our children collide with resentment of the ex? How do we transfer longing, shame and fear into a new gym membership? And finally, how do we endure the dips and dives that eventually catapult us to grow?
Those of us touched by divorce will say, "Geez! Here I am!" and recognize parts of themselves in its pages.
