Présentation de l'éditeur

When Nina's beloved husband abandons ship humming Let Me Entertain You, her world collapses. But not for long: it's the here and now - we believe in life after love.

This is Nina's story: it's about darkness and desire, men and menstruation, kids and kindness, vodka and victory, loss and laughter.

A vibrant tale of recovery and rediscovery, it's a battle cry for woman power, a call to pick ourselves up off the floor and party.
