Notes on a Marriage

Forty-eight-year-old Diane's husband has just left her for a younger woman - because, he says, she 'bores' him. Diane takes the charge to heart and, alongside wild and hilarious best friend Claudine, embarks on a journey to restore her faith in herself and work out exactly what she is left with after all these years.

Witty, sharp and emotionally rich, this is a story about freedom and identity and how it's never too late to put yourself first.
