Description
INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • READ WITH JENNA’S APRIL BOOK CLUB PICK • The Husbands delights in asking: how do we navigate life, love, and choice in a world of never-ending options? (“A bottomless champagne flute of a novel —The Washington Post)
When Lauren returns home to her flat in London late one night, she is greeted at the door by her husband, Michael. There’s only one problem—she’s not married. She’s never seen this man before in her life. But according to her friends, her much-improved decor, and the photos on her phone, they’ve been together for years.
As Lauren tries to puzzle out how she could be married to someone she can’t remember meeting, Michael goes to the attic to change a lightbulb and abruptly disappears. In his place, a new man emerges, and a new, slightly altered life re-forms around her. Realizing that her attic is creating an infinite supply of husbands, Lauren confronts the question: If swapping lives is as easy as changing a lightbulb, how do you know you’ve taken the right path? When do you stop trying to do better and start actually living?

Description
Thirty-something Lauren has been leading a steady, enjoyable single life: great friends, good job, and a nice flat in south-east London, until, one night, she comes back from a party to find a stranger in her home. His name is Michael. He's attractive, sweet, and, according to him, her friends, and the pictures on her walls, he's Lauren's husband. Just as Lauren is trying to figure out how she could be married to someone she can't remember meeting, Michael climbs up into the attic to change a lightbulb and abruptly disappears. In his place, a new man climbs down, and a new, slightly altered life reforms around her. Lauren quickly realizes that her attic can somehow, incredibly, supply her with endless iterations of lives and partners. Cycling through marriages, sometimes lasting weeks, sometimes less than five minutes, Lauren grapples with her fate. If swapping husbands is as easy as changing a lightbulb, when do you know you've found the right one? How do you recognize what's good, or what simple happiness feels like, in a world that demands constant optimization with one more search or swipe left?
