«Une épouse presque parfaite !» is the novel by Laurie Colwin, published in paperback (349 pages, in French).
Polly Solo-Miller, daughter of an ultra-conservative family on the East Coast of the United States, juggles her role as wife and mother with a love outside marriage. That double life causes her inner conflicts: she loves her husband, her children and her lover, and the novel follows her as she tries to find a balance between duty and desire.
Originally published in English as «Family Happiness», this French edition (2007) includes the translation by Anne Berton and belongs to the Le Livre de Poche collection (No. 30736).
For readers of literary fiction who enjoy portraits of family, marriage and emotional dilemmas.
