For fans of Marriage Story and Elena Ferrante's Days of Abandonment
Terri runs off with a lover, abandoning her children and her
marriage of twenty-five years. Her husband, David, is left to take
care of their two daughters, one of whom is falling in love for the
first time. These four people start to question their identity
outside the nuclear family. What remains of a disintegrated home,
and what changes? Marijke Schermer's Love, If That's What It Is
gives a kaleidoscopic view of a divorce, permitting the reader to
enter the heads of not only the spouses, but also of the two
daughters and the divorcees' new lovers. Through several
characters, the reader is presented with just as many views on
relationships, while Schermer remains impartial and thus confronts
readers with their own--perhaps shaky--romantic principles. What is
love? With fresh flair and provocative perspectives, Schermer
manages to provide an original and versatile answer.
