Isabel Gillies, Happens Every Day: An All-Too-True Story

Thursday, October 15, 2009 - 6:30 PM | Members' Room

When Isabel Gillies's husband took a teaching job at a Midwestern college, Isabel and their sons moved with him from New York City to Ohio. But within a few months, the marriage was over. The life Isabel had made crumbled. "By turns enlightening, funny, gut-wrenching, this is a great read about one of the great truths in life: you can't control what happens to you, you can only control how you react," says Library Journal. "Highly recommended."
