Author(s): Elizabeth Berg

Fiction

"When is a marriage worth saving, and when is it worth letting go? In her previous novels, Elizabeth Berg has demonstrated a startling clarity, focus and raw emotion. In Say When, she again negotiates perfectly the fine balance between humour and poignancy as she charts the days and nights of a family whose normal life has been shattered. Told from the point of view of a man who goes overnight from being a husband to becoming his wife's roommate, this is an absorbing story working through denial and pain toward personal responsibility and redemption."
