The Divorce Diaries

Funny, honest, confronting and wise, this is a compelling and bitter-sweet true story of breaking up and breaking through. 'I hear you're divorced?' a friend greets me. 'Congratulations!' The Divorce Diaries outlines the difficult and often heart-breaking process of leaving a marriage and beginning again. Sarah Quigley has garnered numerous accolades, including Column of the Year in the MPA Awards, for her magazine articles on the subject. Now she revisits the tumultuous months leading up to exiting her marriage - and the equally confusing emotions that follow. She overcomes grief, guilt and regret, while learning to enjoy being alone again and living in a tiny rooftop apartment, surrounded by glossy millionaire neighbours. Taking the first tentative steps into a changed world of dating, Quigley shares both her darkest and most hilarious moments as a divorcee, all played out against the colourful bohemian backdrop of her adopted city, Berlin. Ultimately, this book traces the revival of her belief in love.
