Mrs. Kimble

At turns beautiful, devastating and complex, Mrs. Kimble explores the interplay between deception and vulnerability. –Chicago Tribune

The award-winning debut novel from Jennifer Haigh, author of Baker Towers, The Condition, and Faith, tells the story of Birdie, Joan, and Dinah, three women who marry the same charismatic, predatory, and enigmatic opportunist: Ken Kimble. Resonating with emotional intensity and narrative innovation reminiscent of Ann Patchett’s Bel Canto and Barbara Kingsolver’s The Poisonwood Bible, Haigh’s Mrs. Kimble is a timeless story of grief, passion, heartache, deception, and the complex riddle of love.
