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 don't. Or, at least, until Peter doesn't--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. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e An instant bestseller when it was published anonymously in 1929, \u003ci\u003eEx-Wife\u003c\/i\u003e 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 doctor's 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\/body\u003e","brand":"McNally Editions","offers":[{"title":"Ex-Wife | Ursula Parrott | Paperback | 9781946022561 | New | Fiction 1610506","offer_id":50682339623170,"sku":"1610506","price":32.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/3327\/5906\/files\/714lml0FzOL.jpg?v=1791403528","url":"https:\/\/boswellsbooks.com\/products\/ex-wife","provider":"Boswell's Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
