Description
A darkly funny feminist debut about a resentful stay-at-home wife and her vindictive marriage therapist
Revenge is in session.
Eliza Sheridan is at her wits' end with her husband, Richard. Not only did he uproot her and their daughter Mara's lives for his career, but he also hasn't honored the one thing he promised before moving to Dublin: that he'd make more time for his wife and daughter.
So when Eliza receives an anonymous photo of Richard with another woman, she's just about ready to file for divorce. As a last resort, she pays a visit to a marriage therapist, Ms. Early, who Eliza quickly learns is a bit...alternative in her approach. As their sessions unfold, Ms. Early spurs her on to commit a series of vengeful acts against Richard--each more bizarre than the last--all in the name of "re-training" her husband. But when therapy takes a risky turn, suspicions grow and alliances shift... How far is Eliza willing to go to save her marriage?

Critical Reviews
Critical Reviews
"A sort of dark modern Irish fairy tale with the occasional feel of an acerbic Restoration comedy, Caroline Madden's The Marriage Vendetta is highly entertaining and compulsively readable." --Alan Glynn, award-winning author of Limitless "A propulsive page-turner readers won't be able to put down... Sharp, witty and brilliantly unpredictable." --Joseph Murray, author of Fling "A wonderfully edgy and exquisitely funny debut from a writer who is here to stay." --Joseph O'Connor, award-winning author of Star of the Sea
