One is a fictional character trying to live the happily-ever-after many imagine for themselves, and the second woman is inspired by the author herself, relating the most intimate moments of her life. Both couples start their marriages full of idyllic happiness, but as the stressors of everyday lifeseep into their daily lives, that spark of young love begins to dim. In trenchant, thoughtful prose, Lihi Lapid tells a braided story of women struggling to live up to modern pressures: about shattered dreams; and about finding the strength to gather up the pieces and to learn to smile again"--  |c Provided by publisher.
