ABOUT THE BOOK
Five decades of marriage. Such a milestone should be a cause for celebration. But that never happened—not in any conventional way. For Anne-Remy Jones, a woman in the prime of her later life, her dreams and aspirations had been derailed by a dark secret. One that the husband she admired so much had harboured for more than a decade. Lies. Betrayal. Rage. When the world came crashing down around Jones, it set off shockwaves that threatened to destroy everything she held dear. Despite her disbelief and anger, she realized she had to find an out-of-the- box way to cope, or risk losing everything.
In this sometimes-shocking memoir, My Soul on Ice, Jones recalls the people and places that helped shape her worldview. She tells her story with aplomb, interspersing her present-day upheaval with recollections over the decades. One constant during her peripatetic life, moving from the US to the UK, Asia, and eventually settling in Canada, is pondering the path not taken. Leaving behind her first love. Choosing to deprioritize her career. Trusting her husband. Jones tries to come to terms with the past while gaining the courage to redefine the present, along with the meaning of marriage, on her own terms . |
