Translation of: Autopsie d'une femme plate.
"First published as Autopsie d'une femme plate in 2017 by Les Éditions XYZ. First published in English in 2019 by House of Anansi Press Inc."--Title page verso.
A tale of forty-eight-year-old Diane, a woman whose husband leaves her and is having an affair because, he says, she bores him. Diane takes the charge to heart and undertakes an often ribald, highly entertaining journey to restoring trust in herself and others that is at the same time an astute commentary on women and girls, gender differences, and the curious institution of marriage in the twenty-first century. All the details are up for scrutiny in this tender, brisk story of the path to recovery.
