The "searingly honest, brilliantly written" (Delia Ephron, New York
Times bestselling author) memoir of a woman trying to reinvent her
life who finds, after her divorce, that true freedom to make any
choice means being free to make every mistake. "What to do now, I
don't know. You see, I no longer love my husband." A
thirty-something journalist living in Brooklyn, Heather Chaplin has
to acknowledge the obvious: her marriage is over, and her career is
stagnating. When she summons the courage to leave her husband
behind, her life turns into an emotional roller coaster. She is
soon dating a cast of characters in New York until an impulsive
trip to Ireland thrusts her into the orb of a magnetic man named
Kieran. But just when she believes herself to be on the brink of
what she'd always wanted, a series of setbacks throw her into a
volatile spiral downwards. Her independence becomes a frightening
prison. As she struggles to find her way back to the world she once
knew, she must confront the reality of the past to find her way to
the possibilities of her future. Narrated with a uniquely
provocative voice, Reckless Years is a raw, propulsive debut:
unfailingly profound and impossible to put down. Chaplin writes
about all the things women aren't supposed to say or feel: rage,
manipulation, sexual desire-even madness. "Dramatic, adventurous,
and heartbreaking" (Kirkus Reviews), yet ultimately redemptive, it
is the story of losing yourself in the middle of a comeback and
finding yourself in the most surprising of places.
