‘Staying True’? Most Marriage Memoirs Do Anything But
Like Elizabeth Edwards' “Resilience,” scorned-wife screeds are most pertinently a thinly veiled opportunity to bash an ex's paramour. (Edwards' book might as well have been illustrated by a photo of her giving Rielle Hunter the finger.) And, like many conjugal postmortems, “Resilience” also loses its authority by trafficking in a deeply implausible transcendence. You'd find it a lot easier to buy Claire Bloom's “Leaving a Doll's House” or Mia Farrow's “What Falls Away” were those literary f-yous not directed entirely at the gentlemen in question.
