The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo

by Taylor Jenkins Reid

You wonder what it must be like to be a man, to be so confident that the final say is yours.

Damn you, Mick Riva! But I stand by this with my whole heart. Power is ultimately about who will back you. And men like Mick Riva not only have the strength of their physical body but the strength of the entire community at large, ready to back them up. Women like Evelyn Hugo do not have that luxury. And if this book is about any one thing, it is about maneuvering through and around power, when the world is set up to keep you from it.
