Twenty-seven-year-old Roxy is left behind with their daughter, her husband's personal assistant, and their babysitter to come to terms with this shameful end to her marriage. Looking to break free from her grief, Roxy takes the three of them on an impromptu road trip filled with darkly humorous observations about loss, parental responsibility, and the expiration date of love. Through masterful dialogues and in her trademark lucid style, Gerritsen introduces the reader to a woman whose response to grief both shocks and endears.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e World Editions\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/04\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781642860405\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eForeword\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/26\/2020\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Esther Gerritsen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36664296931484,"sku":"9781642860405","price":13.59,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_a6a866fe-b033-4a90-aca5-4cff70ad62ca.jpg?v=1603906282","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/roxy-9781642860405","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
