AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER | A REESE'S BOOK CLUB PICK

Tired, stressed, and in need of more help from your partner? Imagine running your household (and life!) in a new way ...

Tired of being the 'she-fault' parent responsible for all aspects of her busy household, Eve Rodsky realised that simply identifying the issue of unequal labour on the home front wasn't enough: She needed a solution to this universal problem. Her sanity, identity, career and marriage depended on it.

The result is Fair Play: a time- and anxiety-saving system that offers couples a completely new way to divvy up domestic responsibilities. Rodsky interviewed more than five hundred men and women from all walks of life to figure out what the invisible work in a family actually entails and how to get it all done efficiently. With four easy-to-follow rules, 100 household tasks, and a series of conversation starters for you and your partner, Fair Play helps you prioritise what's important to your family and who should take the lead on every chore, from laundry to homework to dinner.

'Winning' this game means rebalancing your home life, reigniting your relationship with your significant other, and reclaiming your Unicorn Space - the time to develop the skills and passions that keep you interested and interesting. Stop drowning in to-dos and lose some of that invisible workload that's pulling you down. Are you ready to try Fair Play? Let's deal you in.

The perfect companion to The Fair Play Deck: A Couple's Conversation Deck for Prioritising What's Important.

Eve Rodsky received her B.A. in economics and anthropology from the University of Michigan, and her J.D. from Harvard Law School. After working in foundation management at J.P. Morgan, she founded the Philanthropy Advisory Group to advise families and charitable foundations on best practices for their work. She created the Fair Play system in response to her own need to juggle work and family life when she realized that she could apply her expertise in family mediation, strategy, and organizational management to a problem closer to home. Over the last decade, she has tested Fair Play with more than 500 families all around the US and the world. Rodsky was born and raised by a single mum in New York City and now lives in Los Angeles with her husband and their three children. Fair Play is her first book.
