Modern & contemporary fiction (post c 1945); Dating, relationships, living together & marriage

One woman, two men. What if she doesn't have to choose?

Overcome with guilt about a love affair she can't give up, Anna confesses to her husband, Brendan. He is shocked and devastated but makes the unusual decision to try to accept the lover, Jeremy, as part of their family.

Told from three perspectives, Double Happiness is a story about sex, honesty and jealousy

and the challenges of forging a new kind of romance.

Set in Melbourne over seven years, this lyrical contemporary love story explores the complexities of non-monogamy with humour and heart, asking what it's like to love two, or more, people equally but differently. What is the effect of time on erotic love? And what happens when your new lover wants someone else too

'Fascinating, fearless and frank.'

Paul Dalgarno, author of A Country of Eternal Light

'Rochelle Siemienowicz dissects with surgical precision the murky territory of the 'happily ever after', and does so with wisdom, humour and grace. Her lyrical and oh-so-sexy novel does what best novels do

makes you think deeper about how to live your own life. Double Happiness is a sophisticated, mature debut and Siemienowicz is a dazzling writer.'

Lee Kofman, author of The Writer Laid Bare, The Dangerous Bride

'Wise, affecting and damned sexy.'

Dmetri Kakmi, author of The Door and Other Uncanny Tales
