For fans of Helen Fielding and Allison Pearson, this irresistible novel explores a woman's journey of losing and rediscovering herself in midlife. As she approaches the age her mother was when she lost her, and grapples with the weight of extra pounds and a stagnant marriage, an anonymous online study titled “Marriage in the 21st Century” unexpectedly alters her life. Assigned the pseudonym Wife 22 and paired with a caseworker, Researcher 101, she begins to answer probing questions that reveal deeper truths about her life. Amidst the chaos of school lunches, family dinners, and daily routines, she reflects on her identity as Alice Buckle: a devoted spouse and mother, a drama teacher, and a seeker of solutions. Through candid confessions, she confronts the realities of her marriage, including moments of longing and the risk of forgetting one another. As her correspondence with Researcher 101 becomes more personal, she finds herself at a crossroads—facing a decision that could impact her family and marriage. With the power of confession as a catalyst, she navigates the complexities of love, desire, and self-discovery.
