A ferocious, fiendish and utterly compelling portrait of a dysfunctional couple descent into hell, The war of the Roses kept me in stitches all night long! I couldn't believe how nasty those two dimwitted idiots were to each other and how determined they were to destroy each other. A marvellous and truculent tapestry of marital bliss gone absolutely bonkers and an unflinching look and vitriolic description of the venomous and almost murderous consequences that brings about the total destruction of a marriage.
Very hilarious & peppered with some unforgettable verbal pyrotechnics, this delightful psychological novel is also a terrific slice of late 70s-early 80s American life! Now I need to watch the 1989 film version once again!
Highly recommended and to be enjoyed without any moderation👍

Many thanks to Netgalley and Stonehouse Press for this fantastic ARC
