All Maggie wanted was to be understood. How did she end up in a relationship with her teacher and then in court, a hated pariah in her small town?

All Sloane wanted was to be admired. How did she end up a sexual object of men, including her husband, who liked to watch her have sex with other men and women?

Review

The most important book I've read this decade, and possibly ever -- Books of the Decade ― Stylist

My best book of the year so far. And probably next year's too -- Jojo Moyes

Controversial, detailed, spellbinding, upsetting, true and compelling in equal measure -- Books of the Year ― Sunday Times

Painful and beautiful, gutting and sexy. I don't think I've read a book that has captivated me as intensely as this one, which I still think about, months later, in the quietest hours of the night ― Red

A book with the thrill of the new that you can expect to dominate WhatsApp threads, line Tube carriages and pop up in foreign Airbnbs for years to come ― Evening Standard

The biggest debut of the year . . . Groundbreaking ― Vogue

Captures the pain and powerlessness of desire as well as its heady joys -- Books of the Year ― Economist

For anyone who thinks they know what women want, this book is an alarm, and its volume is turned all the way up ― Time Magazine

This book wrecked me, in a good way -- Reese Witherspoon

Whether you are a man curious to know how the woman in your life thinks and feels, or a woman who longs to hear someone articulate the thoughts you've never even admitted to yourself, Three Women should be on your bedside table ― Irish Independent
