As the Herzfelds begin to crack under the weight of their secrets, she finds herself in a more precarious position than ever before.<br><br>Reflective yet propulsive, and told in a voice both ingenuous and insightful, <i>Other Women </i>is a timeless and all-too-relatable tale of unwise decisions and unfortunate fixations.<br><br>This volume includes three new short stories and an introduction from Megan Nolan.
