After a three-week business trip, Viki eagerly awaited seeing her husband again. But at home she was met with a “surprise”—her husband declared that everything was over and that he was leaving her for another woman. Boom, shock—Vicky ended up right under a truck in her own living room.
Her husband seemed like a hologram: the same face, yet a completely unfamiliar, чужий person.
The audiobook “Escaped Husbands” is based on therapy with more than 400 women whose lives were turned upside down when their husbands suddenly left. Vicky Stark is a family therapist who herself suffered from “the syndrome of the runaway husband.” In her book, she helps women understand what prompted once-loving partners to turn into indifferent strangers—and gives them the tools they need to heal and rebuild their lives in new and unexpected ways.
