Review:
Haunting . . . Beautifully written, the ennui of its Anna Karenina-esque heroine's deceptively perfect life as a Swiss housewife seeps from every page (Best books of 2015, Harper’s Bazaar)
It's the book that will have everyone talking . . . (Cosmopolitan)
This slow-burning literary novel of marital disintegration will leave you in bits. It's a bleak, but beautiful read, with echoes of Tolstoy's Anna Karenina. (Glamour)
A racy mix of Gone Girl and 50 Shades. (Grazia)
There are echoes in Hausfrau of those other frustrated wives, Emma Bovary and Anna Karenina (Independent on Sunday)
It is that impossible thing: a page-turner about depression. (Observer)
A rare and remarkable debut. (Janet Fitch, bestselling author of White Oleander)
An exceptional debut . . . [with] a heart-stopping climax . . . this portrait of a woman on the edge lingers long in the memory. (The Bookseller)
I read this at a sitting, transfixed by this insightful and shocking portrait of a woman on the edge. (Fanny Blake Woman and Home)
Book Description:
Hausfrau may be the Fifty Shades of literary fiction . . . This debut brilliantly chronicles a woman's
life falling apart . . . The novel's mood is, like Anna's, dreamy and dissociated . . . It is a brilliantly sustained examination of self-induced loneliness and pathological alienation.
It's the book that will have everyone talking . . . (Cosmopolitan)
