In 'The Age of Grief,' Jane Smiley introduces us to Dave and Dana, a married couple who seem to have it all: years of peaceful coexistence, three daughters, and a thriving dental practice. However, their apparent happiness is threatened when Dave overhears Dana murmur a phrase that will change everything: 'I will never be happy again.' From that moment on, Dave becomes convinced that Dana has fallen in love with another man and decides, unexpectedly, that the best way to save their relationship is to prevent his wife from discovering that he knows. Smiley authentically narrates the rhythms of everyday life, showing how an unexpected emotion can shake everything, leading to tragicomic situations and a profound reflection on married life, loss, and unhappiness.
Jane Smiley is an American novelist. She won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 1992 for her novel A Thousand Acres (1991).
