Review

An unsettling novel about the ultimate unknowability of your spouse and a sure-footed addition to a canon that might include Jane Eyre and Gone Girl . . . Gripping reading - Sunday Times

An absolute banger! Paranoid, claustrophobic, and totally addictive, My Husband will give you whiplash. It's my new obsession: from the very first page, I couldn't leave it alone -- Alice Slater

There’s simply no way of telling how far she’ll go, and her increasingly volatile unreliability as a narrator makes the story all the more riveting -- Observer

This is not a conventional thriller as such, but there is plenty of suspense and the stakes are high. A bestseller and prize winner in France, this cool examination of the balance of power in a marriage comes over as the screwed-up offspring of Marguerite Duras’s The Lover. That there is a final twist is the only predictable aspect of a skilfully manipulated psychological drama. Emily (Brontë) in Paris - Times

My Husband is a cleverunsettling and, at times, funny tale of unhinged marital devotion - Guardian

Irresistible and delightful -- Amélie Nothomb

The exceptional My Husband has everything I look for in a novel: chic, beguiling and deeply unhinged -- Juno Dawson

I haven't been hooked by a voice like this in a long time. A heady intricate terrifying read -- Daisy Johnson

In this wry, psychologically complex debut, a meticulously manicured wife is obsessed with her husband. For the past 13 years, she's made a science of meeting his needs, putting them before her own or even their children's. Her love is a stranglehold; something's gotta give. The winner of France's First Novel Prize, this riveting emotional thriller requires serious willpower to not devour in a single sitting - Oprah Daily

Shortlisted for four literary prizes, My Husband humorously deals with the complexity of loveA salient and funny novel about a marital face-to-faceMy Husband is one of the most demanded books of the rentrée littéraire. [...] What if you always loved your spouse as if it was the first day ? The wild idea of novelist Maud Ventura - Madame Figaro
