Do you want to read about a dysfunctional love triangle featuring three unsympathetic characters? Hannah Pittard's memoir We Are Too Many is the book for you. The author is married to a writer who is upset that he is not as successful as she is, so he gets his revenge by having an affair with her insufferable best friend. Divorce inevitably follows. There’s some good writing here, especially in the second and third sections, but overall I found this narrative disjointed and unappealing. ( ) As you can tell by my rating, the book did not suit me. It is a fast read yes but I had to force myself to read it. I have gone through the experience of divorce. From my own experience, divorce causes a lot of reflection: Why did I marry him? how much can a human take? How can I prevent this from ever happening again? I did not the author's deep feelings. Depressed, yes but not coming to terms with it. Talking to friends and family, she did that but I was not allowed inside her thoughts and feelings. What I missed was depth and substance, this book glided on the surface. It is supposed to be very funny but I did not enjoy her jokes. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

"In this wryly humorous and innovative look at a marriage gone wrong, Hannah Pittard recalls a decade's worth of unforgettable conversations, beginning with the one in which she discovers her husband has been having sex with her charismatic best friend, Trish. These time-jumping exchanges are fast-paced, intimate, and often jaw-dropping in their willingness to reveal the vulnerabilities inherent in any friendship or marriage. Blending fact and fiction, sometimes re-creating exchanges with extreme accuracy and sometimes diving headlong into pure speculation, Pittard takes stock not only of her own past and future but also of the larger, more universal experiences they connect with--from the depths of female rage to the heartbreaking ways we inevitably outgrow certain people. Clever and bold and radically honest to an unthinkable degree, We Are Too Many examines the ugly, unfiltered parts of the female experience, as well as the many (happier) possibilities in starting any life over after a major personal catastrophe."--Publisher marketing.
