Revue de presse :
This is the novel of the summer . . . It is incredibly wise. There is no one that this book isn't for. I can't believe it's a first novel. Pure brilliance (India Knight The Sunday Times)
This book . . . is the most astonishingly brilliant Trojan horse of a novel. Begins as a hilarious, fast-paced tale of a middle-aged Manhattan man navigating fast sex culture of dating apps, ends as a gut-punch feminist text (Dolly Alderton, author of Everything I Know About Love)
Sharp and wicked, insightful and funny, and then suddenly so touching (David Nicholls, author of One Day)
Wonderful. Utterly blistering about how women have to live - a powerful feminist book wrapped with perfect stealth in a wildly entertaining, moving story (Marian Keyes, author of The Break)
Here is a portrait of modern love and marriage that is blisteringly funny, wincingly painful, and - ultimately - both heartbreaking and humane. Fleishman Is in Trouble reminds me of the great novels of the 1960s and 1970s - just the sort of thing that Philip Roth or John Updike might have produced in their prime (except, of course, that the author understands women). Taffy Brodesser-Akner can write the pants off any novelist out there. She's a star, and this book is a work of utter perfection (Elizabeth Gilbert, author of Eat, Pray, Love)
Fleishman Is in Trouble is so much smarter than a Great American Novel wannabe written by another clever man . . . What Brodesser-Akner has achieved here, by Trojan-horsing herself into Toby's point of view, is to quietly reveal the souls of the women in the story. But more than that, to show that all stories - about marriage, love, loss, hope and disappointment - really are universal. Libby believes that "all humans are essentially the same, but only some of us, the men, were truly allowed to be that without apology". This is an honest, powerful, human story with no apologies. And it will do the "American Novel" a power of good. (Katy Guest Guardian)
I have just finished Fleishman Is in Trouble... and feel bereft. I read it too fast, because I couldn't stop, but can't bear that it's ended. It is a Great Novel (yes: cap G; Cap N). It has depth, wit, nuance and life. Heartbreaking and funny (Nigella Lawson)
From its opening pages, Fleishman is in Trouble is shrewdly observed, brimming with wisdom and utterly of this moment. Not until its explosive final pages are you fully aware of its cunning ferocity. Taffy Brodesser-Akner's debut is that rare and delicious treat: a page turner with heft (Maria Semple Where'd You Go, Bernadette)
So urgently modern and relevant . . . I kept turning down pages (Hadley Freeman)
Chock full with humour and originality . . . It's a grown-up comedy that actually has far deeper things to say about love (Francesca Brown Stylist)

Finally free from his nightmare marriage, Toby Fleishman is ready for a life of online dating and weekend-only parental duties. But as he optimistically looks to a future that is wildly different from the one he imagined, his life turns upside-down as his ex-wife, Rachel, suddenly disappears.
While Toby tries to find out what happened - juggling work, kids and his new, app-assisted sexual popularity - his tidy narrative of a spurned husband is his sole consolation. But if he ever wants to really understand where Rachel went and what really happened to his marriage, he is going to have to consider that he might not have seen it all that clearly in the first place . . .

Description du livre Trade Paperback. Etat : Good. Etat de la jaquette : Very Good. Text slightly buckled.Recently separated Toby Fleishman is su ddenly, somehow--and at age forty-one, short as ever--surrounded by women who want him: women who are self-actualized, women who a re smart and interesting, women who don't mind his height, women who are eager to take him for a test drive with just the swipe of an app. Toby doesn't mind being used in this way; it's a welcome change from the thirteen years he spent as a married man, the th irteen years of emotional neglect and contempt he's just endured. Anthropologically speaking, it's like nothing he ever experience d before, particularly back in the 1990s, when he first began dat ing and became used to swimming in the murky waters of rejection. But Toby's new life--liver specialist by day, kids every other w eekend, rabid somewhat anonymous sex at night--is interrupted whe n his ex-wife suddenly disappears. Either on a vision quest or a nervous breakdown, Toby doesn't know--she won't answer his texts or calls. Is Toby's ex just angry, like always? Is she punishing him, yet again, for not being the bread winner she was? As he des perately searches for her while juggling his job and parenting th eir two unraveling children, Toby is forced to reckon with the re al reasons his marriage fell apart, and to ask if the story he ha s been telling himself all this time is true.
