"Sharply funny, perceptive, and surprising at every turn, The Smash-Up is a story that's acid-etched and full of heart. Ali Benjamin is Edith Wharton with fresh eyes." --Amy Bloom, New York Times bestselling author of White Houses

Synopsis
Life for Ethan and Zo used to be simple. Ethan co-founded a lucrative media start-up and Zo was well on her way to becoming a successful filmmaker. Then they moved to a rural community for a little more tranquility - or so they thought.When newfound political activism transforms Zo into a barely recognizable ball of outrage and #MeToo allegations rock his old firm, Ethan finds himself a misfit in his own life. Enter a houseguest who is young, fun and not at all concerned with the real world and Ethan is abruptly forced to question everything - his past, his future, his marriage and what he values most.Startling, witty, thought-provoking and wise, Ali Benjamin's exciting debut novel offers the shock of recognition as it deftly illuminates some of the biggest issues of our time. Taking inspiration from a classic Edith Wharton tale about a small-town love triangle, The Smash-Up is a wholly contemporary exploration of how the things we fail to see can fracture a life, a family, a community and a nation., Smart, sublime, and wickedly clever, The Smash-Up captures--then transcends--our current polarized moment "An exhilarating ride . . . hilarious . . . a modern and energetic story about a marriage on the skids."-- The New York Times Ethan has always been one of the good guys, and for years, nobody has appreciated this fact more than his wife, Zo. Until now. Jolted into activism by the 2016 election, Zo's transformed their home into the headquarters for the local resistance, turning their comfortable decades-long marriage inside-out. Meanwhile, their boisterous daughter, Alex, grows wilder by the day. Ethan's former business partner needs help saving the media company they'd co-founded. Financial disaster looms. Enter a breezy, blue-haired millennial making her way through the gig economy. Suddenly Ethan faces a choice unlike any he's ever had to make. Unfolding over fivet urbulent days in 2018, The Smash-Up wrestles shrewdly with some of the biggest questions of our time: What, exactly, does it mean to be a good guy? What will it take for men to break the "bro code"? How does the world respond when a woman demands more? Can we ever understand another's experiences... and what are the consequences of failing to try? Moving, funny, and cathartic, this portrait of a marriage--and a nation--under strain is, ultimately, a magic trick of empathy, one that will make you laugh and squirm until its final, breathless pages.

    Book was shipped quickly, securely packaged, and better than the pictures. Great value for an addition to my encyclopedia. Seller responded quickly and sent over additional photos upon request. Would absolutely buy from seller again.

    Ordered Naomi book, the condition of both books is/was great. I am a collector and fan, so this was a deal, as others were selling this at ridiculous prices. I was also surprised the large pink Naomi box was included, and wasn’t expecting it. Quality, as described, quick delivery. Would shop this seller again.
