The Bitch in the House…

Despite more power and choices than ever before, women are still angry — that’s not necessarily a bad thing, as anger is what continues to open the door for change.

In this collection, 15 women speak boldly and passionately about choices they’ve made — about sex, children, love and work — and explore what’s working and what is not. Their essays — always provocative, honest, witty and wise — are the culmination of the lessons of the past two decades, the ‘me’ years and the therapy years, the years that have taught women to express themselves and acknowledge their needs. As celebratory as they are critical, these brilliant essays reflect the truth about life.

Then…

The Bastard on the Couch
Turns out that The Bitch In the House was only half the story. Daniel Jones, husband of Cathi Hanauer, has rallied the men for the “literary equivalent of The Full Monty,” in which a group of thoughtful, passionate and often hilarious men lay it bare when it comes to their wives and girlfriends, their hopes and fears. Many of these husbands and fathers contemplate aspects of their personal lives they’ve never before revealed — kicking open the door on their marriages and sex lives, their fathering and domestic conflicts, their most intimate relationships and situations.

Powerful, heartfelt and irreverent, this is a bold, unprecedented glimpse into the glaring truths of modern relationships.
