Information

When life starts unravelling all at once, Alison Solomon finds herself facing a catalogue of midlife crises - an unfaithful husband, a revolving door of questionable therapists, a mysterious woman lurking outside… and possibly a rat in the kitchen. In My Husband and Other Rats, Shelley Klein delivers a sharp, tender and laugh-out-loud funny novel about navigating chaos with resilience and wit. Packed with brilliantly drawn characters - from an artisanal rat catcher to fiercely honest friends - this is comic writing at its finest. Join Shelley for a lively conversation about midlife, mishaps and finding humour in the messiest moments of life.
