About this listen

Once I leave my husband’s house, am I still a wife?

What happens when the fairy tale marriage falls apart?

Ranjani flies out of Mumbai as a young, starry-eyed bride, anticipating an American-style Bollywood-version of her very own happily-ever-after. By 30, she has a Ph.D., a green card, and a daughter. The marriage is rocky, but Ranjani is secure in being somebody’s daughter, sister, wife, and mother.

When the family returns to India, her family situation deteriorates further. When she finally walks out after 16 years of marriage, Ranjani has to answer the dreaded questions:

  • What will people say?
  • What about my child?
  • How will I live alone?

Despite her education, work history, and experience of living abroad, Ranjani has no idea what lies on the road ahead for her, her daughter, and their place in society.

While renting a house, paying the bills, and figuring out her new life, Ranjani has to overcome private fears, public scrutiny, and unexpected loss as she embraces her identity as a single parent.

If you are considering, going through, finding your way after a divorce in a culture that is not supportive, this audiobook is for you.

It is possible to walk the path you have been assigned with gratitude and forgiveness, courage and grace, humility and confidence, without falling apart.

Rewriting My Happily Ever After is an evocative, honest account of the aftermath of divorce in an unsupportive culture. This uplifting memoir of grace and courage shows how to build resilience and find happiness by being true to yourself.
