If you love Sex and the City or Girls, this is for you.

Us, Women
A novel of heartbreak, friendship, and female rage in modern-day Paris.

When she receives an email from her ex-husband's new wife arrives, an invitation to their first wedding anniversary, it drives her nuts. What begins as a quiet spiraling becomes a month-long descent into obsession, sexual misadventures, late-night confessions, and sharp conversations with the three women who orbit her life.

Kiana, an Iranian academic in a passionless marriage who's fallen in love with a man she's never touched. Farah, a single mother cleaning office floors at dawn, whose wisdom cuts deeper than any therapist's and is on the run from his psychopathic ex. And Lea, wild and unapologetic, who believes orgasms are political and that women owe the world nothing.

Told in raw, intimate vignettes, Us, Women is a fierce and lyrical exploration of desire, betrayal, aging, and the quiet rage of women who have done everything right and still feel invisible. It is for every woman who's ever questioned her choices, every friend who's held another's secrets, and every ex who thought he got away clean.
