A riveting true story about the sex lives of three real American women “who are carnal, brave, and beautifully flawed” (People, Book of the Week), based on nearly a decade of reporting.
Lina, a young mother in suburban Indiana whose marriage has lost its passion, reconnects with an old flame through social media and embarks on an affair that quickly becomes all-consuming. Maggie, a seventeen-year-old high school student in North Dakota, allegedly engages in a relationship with her married English teacher; the ensuing criminal trial turns their quiet community upside down. Sloane, a successful restaurant owner in an exclusive enclave of the Northeast, is happily married to a man who likes to watch her have sex with other men and women.
Hailed as “a dazzling achievement” (Los Angeles Times) and “a riveting page-turner that explores desire, heartbreak, and infatuation in all its messy, complicated nuance” (The Washington Post), Lisa Taddeo’s Three Women has captivated readers, booksellers, and critics—and topped bestseller lists—worldwide. Based on eight years of immersive research, it is “an astonishing work of literary reportage” (The Atlantic) that introduces us to three unforgettable women—and one remarkable writer—whose experiences remind us that we are not alone.
Lisa Taddeo is the author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Three Women, which she adapted as a dramatic series on Starz, the novel Animal, and the short story collection Ghost Lover. She has contributed to The New York Times, New York magazine, Esquire, Elle, Glamour, and many other publications. Her nonfiction has been included in the Best American Sports Writing and Best American Political Writing anthologies, and her short stories have won two Pushcart Prizes. She lives with her husband and daughter in New England.
Betty Gilpin is a three-time Emmy nominee, two-time SAG Award nominee, and three-time Critics' Choice nominee for her work in the hit series “Glow,” from producers Liz Flahive, Carly Mensch, and Jenji Kohan. Betty will next star in the limited series “Death by Lightning,” opposite Michael Shannon and Matthew Macfadyen, for director Matt Ross and executive producers David Benioff and D.B. Weiss. She can currently be seen as the lead in Damon Lindelof’s series “Mrs Davis,” which premiered to rave reviews and garnered her an Indie Spirit Award nomination. In Fall 2022, Flatiron Books, an imprint of Macmillan, published Betty’s debut collection of essays titled All The Women in My Brain: And Other Concerns. Her essays have been published in The New York Times, Glamour, Lenny Letter, The Hollywood Reporter, and Vanity Fair.
