Review:
Funny and touching ... proof that writing well is the best revenge (CHICAGO TRIBUNE)
I am not a great reader of comic novels, but Ephron's hilarious, recipe-strewn, semi-autobiographical account of a heavily pregnant woman whose husband has left her for a woman with a 'neck as long as an arm' is a treat. A perfect example of Ephron's gift for turning tragedy into comedy, Heartburn is evidence that revenge is indeed a dish best served cold (Paula Hawkins, author of The Girl on the Train)
I have bought more copies of this book to five to people, in a frenzy of enthusiasm, than any other...HEARTBURN is the perfect, bittersweet, sobbingly funny, all-too-true confessional novel. There is not a wrong word - about food, marriage, life, love, l (Nigella Lawson)
[Ephron] chatters up a storm, always on the verge of wisecracking up (GUARDIAN)

The autobiographical novel by Nora Ephron, Oscar-nominated screenwriter (When Harry Met Sally) and successful director (Sleepless in Seattle), very funny and yet sad book about love and loss.

Book Description Paperback. Condition: Very Good. A copy that has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Brilliant journalist Nora Ephron has concocted an acidic first novel from the ingredients of a two-career couple's life in New York and Washington and on the Eastern Shuttle in between. She garnished it with recipes from protagonist Rachel Samstat, the pregnant celebrity cookbook author who finds out her husband is having an affair, and serves it with witty commentary on sex, betrayal, jealousy, divorce, and therapy. The result is "Heartburn", a story that will leave you laughing through the tears. Seller Inventory # RWARE0000063164
