A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

“Leaving a marriage is hard. Probably the hardest single thing you will do in a life time.” That’s the first line of a best selling divorce book — also titled Learning to Leave — by the same author of this screenplay. Living in dynamic San Francisco, Jack and Rosie are in their late 30s, married for 18 years with two teenage boys. They are a typical couple, but they're not. After years in the corporate world, Jack’s dream is to escape for a few months on his large restored sailboat for an adventure along the rugged west coast of Canada. Rosie’s fantasy is just coming true, to open a permanent fitness centre for her popular exercise classes and with that, physical and spiritual independence. Rosie and Jack both have legitimate and reachable dreams. But it means going in different directions. Finding a mutually satisfying answer that will keep them together seems impossible. No matter how good their intentions might be, playing hardball in the divorce court system looks like the only way out. The story is a plunge into the passions and heartbreak that come with divorcing a long time partner. The resolution is filled with hazards from within and without. Rosie and Jack walk a fine line between continuing chaos and new freedoms.
