The State of Affairs: Rethinking Infidelity

By Esther Perel

A compassionate, clear-eyed look at one of the most painful experiences a relationship can face: betrayal. Using real case studies from her global practice, Perel asks why affairs happen even in happy marriages, and whether they must always mean the end. It's a thought-provoking read for anyone trying to understand desire, trust, and what commitment really means today.
