Brilliant,

This review is from: Perfection: A Memoir of Betrayal and Renewal (Hardcover)
Reading “Perfection; A Memoir of Betrayal and Renewal” made me realize how many of us walk through our suburban streets totally unaware of what goes on behind the manicured hedges of our neighbors. Metz’s memoir is a transparent peek inside one perfect neighbor’s window. But a real neighbor. A real woman. A real family. Her book is an easy to read, hard to put down story of the experience of love, betrayal, and the ultimate re-examination of everything she thought she wanted. I couldnt put the book down as I followed her through her discovery process, not only of her husband’s hidden past but also of her own desires.
As a psychotherapist specializing in relationships, I think this book is a realistic and well written account of what happens when infidelity cracks open everything one thinks is real. Buy the book today!
Title Says It All,

This review is from: Perfection: A Memoir of Betrayal and Renewal (Hardcover)
Anyone who has ever had their heart broken over a spouse’s extramarital affair must read this book. You think you had it bad? Julie Metz couldn’t even confront her husband about his affairs, because she didn’t find out about them until six months after he passed away in front of her eyes. She eschews the normal internal struggle to find a sense of closure and instead makes the process external, by tracking down each of the women he had been carrying on with in order to confront them. The resulting story is a heart-wrenching but beautifully told journey into a second phase of life that everyone should be lucky enough to find.
Will take your breath away,

This review is from: Perfection: A Memoir of Betrayal and Renewal (Hardcover)
Julie Metz has written a memoir that will take your breath away, from the initial, unexpected death of her husband to the postmortem revelation of his many affairs. Metz’s style is both intimate and literary, elevating the central drama of her life to a meditation on the nature of human need and fallibility. In exposing her own grief, rage, vulnerability and audacity, Metz allows us to connect deeply and emotionally with her story. Her need to understand what happened in her marriage leads her to confront the women in her dead husband’s past, which ultimately gives her the opportunity to see herself more fully. In this powerful and empowering tale, raw grief and righteous anger finally give way to forgiveness, acceptance and new love.
