Moa Herngren writes with such compassion and insight, bringing the characters so vividly to life that their emotions and passions become our own. I love this novel." - Luanne Rice, New York Times bestselling author of Beach Girls and The Shadow Box "BOOK CLUB ALERT: who's been cruel and who's been clueless in this marriage that can't be saved? The Divorce deftly unmasks the secrets and stresses of an unraveling relationship that absolutely begs to be discussed. Moa Herngren may be the best Swedish import since ABBA and the Volvo."
