Description:
<DIV><B>A writer&rsquo;s life is upended by her destructive ex-husband in this intensely personal novel by the #1 <I>New York Times</I>&ndash;bestselling author of <I>The Group.</I></B><BR /><BR /> Former actress and budding playwright Martha Sinnott longs to recapture the &ldquo;charmed life&rdquo; she abandoned when she divorced her first husband. So she returns to her beloved New England artists&rsquo; colony with her second husband&mdash;and discovers that little has changed. The same people make up the same tightly knit society. Nevertheless, her eagerly anticipated homecoming does include some rude awakenings.<BR /> &#160;<BR /> Martha&rsquo;s arrogant ex, Miles, is dangerously close by, living with his new wife. The people Martha once counted among her closest friends have become also-rans and never-weres, unhappy and often resentful. And in this pervasive atmosphere of falsehoods and self-delusions, the biggest lie of all is Martha&rsquo;s belief that her reunion with Miles won&rsquo;t somehow wreak terrible havoc on all she holds dear.<BR /> &#160;<BR /> A <I>New York Times</I> bestseller by an author with &ldquo;an icily honest eye and a glacial wit that make her portraits stingingly memorable,&rdquo; <I>A Charmed Life </I>is a smart, mesmerizing portrait of love, marriage, and deception (<I>The New York Times</I>).<BR /> &#160;<DIV><I>This ebook features an illustrated biography of Mary McCarthy including rare images from the author&rsquo;s estate.</I></DIV><DIV>&#160;</DIV></DIV>
