Listen to the Marriage

A Novel

About this book

An "emotionally intelligent and deeply felt" drama of marital therapy from the author of The Paper Chase ( Publishers Weekly).
Gretchen and Steve have been married for a long time. Living in San Francisco, recently separated, with two children and demanding jobs, they've started going to a marriage counselor. Unfolding over the course of ten months and taking place entirely in the marriage counselor's office, John Jay Osborn's Listen to the Marriage is the story of a fractured couple in a moment of crisis, and of the person who tries to get them to see each other again. A searing look at the obstacles we put in our own way, as well as the forces that drive us apart (and those that bring us together), Listen to the Marriage is a poignant exploration of marriage—heartbreaking and tender.
"This surprisingly dramatic, voyeuristic novel is based in part on the author's own experiences, lending it an intimate, authentic feel." — Good Housekeeping
"A page-turner, with the reader thrust into the characters' most vulnerable moments . . . Osborn's tale focuses on a single relationship, and in doing so, examines the power of empathy and invites readers to consider how they relate to others in their own lives." — BookPage
