Best Book of the Year Time • Real Simple • Oprah Daily A Belletrist Book Club Pick "As short and sharp as a pairing knife . . . Moves along so briskly and with such sly wit . . . Deliciously wicked." —Ron Charles, The Washington Post What if your two favorite people hated each other with a passion? The wife has it all. A big house in a nice neighborhood, a ride-or-die snarky best friend, Temi, and a devoted husband who loves her above all else—even his distaste for Temi. One lazy afternoon, Temi comes over to drink wine and joke about the husband´s shortcomings with the wife. But when the husband comes home and a series of confessions are made, the wife´s two confidantes are suddenly forced to jockey for their positions, throwing everyone´s integrity into question—and their long-drawn-out territorial dance, carefully constructed over years, into utter chaos. Told in three taut, mesmerizing parts over the course of one day, The Three of Us is a subversively comical, wildly astute, and painfully compulsive portrait of domestic life that explores the fine line between compromise and betrayal when it comes to ourselves and the people we´re meant to love.
