A memoir about a woman's race to save herself and her family and details the ways that extreme views can manifest in a marriage.
What The Reviewers Say
It’s in the denouement of A Well-Trained Wife where Levings fully, and elegantly, reckons with what trying to live life as a perfect "Proverbs 31 woman"... has cost her.
The author pulls no punches in recounting nearly 15 years of oppression and abuse, painting a visceral portrait of her then-monochromatic world with bold strokes of linguistic color and sensory detail.
Searing.
