Description:
A TIME 'New Books You Should Read'

A People magazine 'Book of the Week'

A New York Times Editors' Choice



With a foreword by Elizabeth Strout



'Electric- with wit, with rage, with grief, with the kind of prose that makes you both laugh and thrill to the darker, spikier emotions just barely visible under the bright surface. What a wonderful collection of stories' Lauren Groff



Another day! And then another and another and another. It seemed as if it would all go on forever in that exquisitely boring and beautiful way. But of course it wouldn't; everyone knows that.


In this collection, Hilma Wolitzer invites us inside the private world of domestic bliss, seen mostly through the lens of Paulie and Howard's gloriously ordinary marriage.


From hasty weddings to meddlesome neighbours, ex-wives who just won't leave, to sleepless nights spent worrying about unanswered chainmail, Wolitzer captures the tensions, contradictions and unexpected detours of daily life with wit, candour and an acutely observant eye.


Including stories first published in magazines in the 1960s and 1970s alongside new writing from Wolitzer, now in her nineties Today a Woman Went Mad in the Supermarket reintroduces a beloved writer to be embraced by a new generation of readers.


'A fascinating time capsule of womanhood, marriage and motherhood over the last century - A fabulous book' Emma Straub


'Immensely gratifying, poignant, funny - Breathtaking' Elizabeth Strout, from the foreword

Adorable Fathers Day book!
Format: Board book
I got this book for my husband for Father’s Day, and it’s absolutely adorable. The message is sweet and heartfelt, focusing on how Dad supports, plays with, and loves his child. The writing has a lovely, warm tone that’s perfect for reading aloud together. The book itself is also excellent quality — it has a thick padded cover and sturdy board book pages that can withstand little hands. The illustrations are vibrant with great color contrast, which keeps our toddler engaged. Highly recommend as a gift or a bedtime staple for any dad and child duo!

Great book for baby.

Cutest little story!
Format: Board book
I just got this for my son and his Daddy. The story is so cute and I may have gotten choked up at the end. If you’re looking for a story for your man to read to your little one(s), I highly recommend this one!

Lovely, adorable & well-written - perfect, "daddy" book!
Format: Board book
I bought this book for my son (and maybe a little for my husband lol) when I realized he had 3 "mommy-centered" books, but none for daddy. I wanted one with quality artwork that also had a more tender and meaningful approach, rather than just silly, one that could foster appreciation of my husband and how much he loves my son. I had a difficult time narrowing down which book to get, but I am SO very glad that this is the one I went with. The pictures are adorable, the rhythm & rhyming are very well done and flow well, and the message of the book is exactly what I was hoping for, showing how daddy helps baby learn and grow and how much they love each other. My son loves it!
