The Honesty Box

Bloomsbury presents The Honesty Box by Lucy Brazier, read by Katherine Press. ‘This gorgeous memoir had me in all my feelings. It‘s the raw, funny, moving story of a marriage in crisis. Highly recommend‘ Jennie Godfrey A funny, heartfelt, uplifting quest for unlocking happiness in tough times during life‘s big transitions - from marriage to motherhood, and from mental health to mindfulness. "On National Divorce Day, my husband Steve and I decide to break up. After years of depression and mood swings (him) and hope and defeat (me) enough is, quite frankly, enough. Until a chance remark triggers a chain of events leading to Steve‘s later-in-life diagnosis of ADHD and autism. What follows is a year of discovery, denial, medication and salvation as we, our teenagers and even our beloved Golden Retriever, Margot, adjust to the ups and downs of this new reality. I guess you could call it a love story too." One wife and mother, one garden, and one year of discovering how honesty, hope and home-grown kindness can change everything.
