Synopsis
First published in 1973, The Book of Eve has become a classic. When Eva Carroll walks out on her husband of 40 years, it is an unplanned, completely spontaneous gesture. Yet Eva feels neither guilt nor remorse. Instead, she feels rejuvenated and blissfully free. As she builds a new life for herself in a boarding house on the “wrong” side of Montreal, she finds happiness and independence – and, when she least expects it, love.

“A delight.”

“The success of the much-loved novels of Beresford-Howe stems from their approachability.… Her writing is consistently down-to-earth and highly readable.”
– Quill & Quire
