Innocent Spouse Is "The Big Book" on Public Radio

Here's from American Public Media's "Marketplace" website, with links below for listening to the show hosted by Tess Vigeland:

Innocent Spouse: A Memoir

Title: Innocent Spouse: A Memoir

In this memoir, Washington-based journalist Carol Ross Joynt recounts how she picked up the pieces after the death of her husband, Howard. Left to raise her 5-year-old son as a single parent, forced to take over her family’s financial and legal responsibilities — as well as run her deceased husband’s restaurant — Joynt soon discovers Howard had many secrets. One of them: He owed the IRS nearly $3 million. This memoir recounts how Joynt found the strength to soldier on in the face of heartbreak and suffering.

Carol Joynt has "a perfect eye, an infallible ear and the unequaled gift of rearranging the alphabet into words which both entertain and mean f**cking something."
