A portrait of intimacy and midlife upheaval that uses personal stories of marriage, separation, twinhood, parenting, sex, and money to explore the tension of being both subsumed into others and alone.

After an experiment in non-monogamy upends her life, calling into question every choice she has made and everything she has believed about herself, Jean Garnett gropes her way toward a new kind of existence is this intense, funny, aching account of a woman's breakdown.

Dissecting her closest entanglements and her most frightening feelings, Garnett explores marriage, separation, sex, twin sisterhood, money, heartbreak, parenthood, and the problem of what to do with the emotions that overwhelm us. An unflinching study of need, envy, infatuation, depression and the sudden and mystifying ways our identities can change, The Tantrum is about the relationships that define, destroy and sustain us, and about trying—perhaps unsuccessfully—to find oneself as a single being.

'A uniquely thrilling writer . . . The Tantrum, animated by good humor and ungovernability, is so daring: Garnett shows herself as breakable where the world wants strength, fearless when the reader feels danger. There is simply no one doing personal writing on her level right now' JIA TOLENTINO

Opinie krytyków

A uniquely thrilling writer . . . The Tantrum, animated by good humor and ungovernability, is so daring: Garnett shows herself as breakable where the world wants strength, fearless when the reader feels danger. There is simply no one doing personal writing on her level right now (Jia Tolentino, author of TRICK MIRROR)
The Tantrum introduces a formidable intellect. Jean Garnett's essays create a region of honest and audacious inquiry composed of what is hilarious, what is painful, and above all, what is nearly unbearable (Megha Majumdar, author of A BURNING)
The Tantrum turns its blazing attention on the most intimate precincts of a life—marriage and motherhood, twinhood and friendship, ambition, desire, grief. Jean Garnett is a born essayist: for her, language is an instrument for mulling and shaping, for thinking and rethinking; the results are fierce, funny, and relentlessly self-implicating, the voice on the page always good company. I couldn't put it down (Meghan O'Rourke, author of THE INVISIBLE KINGDOM)
A beautiful and forensic analysis of intimacy through a range of great loves that brims with wisdom, sorrow, and humor (Melissa Febos, author of GIRLHOOD and THE DRY SEASON)
