On what might become one of the most significant days in her husband’s presidency, Alice Blackwell considers the strange and unlikely path that has led her to the White House, and the repercussions of a life lived, as she puts it, 'almost in opposition to itself' . . .
A gorgeously written tale that weaves class, wealth, race, and the exigencies of fate into a brilliant tapestry, American Wife is a novel in which the unexpected becomes inevitable, and the pleasures and pain of intimacy and love are laid bare.
“Terrific! American Wife an intelligent, bighearted novel about a controversial political dynasty.” -- Entertainment Weekly
