Roxy is 27 years old when her husband and his lover are killed in a car crash. Roxy is left behind with their daughter, their house, their car, his assistant, the babysitter and the shame of this inglorious end to their marriage. Her family tries to take care of her, but Roxy is not looking for consolation, she's looking for an enemy. Esther Gerritsen's Roxy is an earth-shattering work of tragedy written with careful consideration evident in every word.
