Gina Frangello tells the morally complex story of her adulterous relationship with a lover and her shortcomings as a mother, and in doing so, highlights the forces that shaped, silenced, and shamed her: everyday misogyny, puritanical expectations regarding female sexuality and maternal sacrifice, and male oppression." —Adrienne Brodeur, author of Wild GameGina Frangello spent her early adulthood trying to outrun a youth marked by poverty and violence. Now a long-married wife and devoted mother, the better life she carefully built is emotionally upended by the death of her closest friend. Soon, awakened to fault lines in her troubled marriage, Frangello is caught up in a recklessly passionate affair, leading a double life while continuing to project the image of the perfect family. When her secrets are finally uncovered, both her home and her identity will implode, testing the limits of desire, responsibility, love, and forgiveness. Blow Your House Down is a powerful testimony about the ways our culture seeks to cage women in traditional narratives of self-sacrifice and erasure. Frangello uses her personal story to examine the place of women in contemporary society: the violence they experience, the rage they suppress, the ways their bodies often reveal what they cannot say aloud, and finally, what it means to transgress "being good" in order to reclaim your own life.

I have been a fan of Gina Frangello for a long time -- I have loved her work for close to a decade.And yet.Blow Your House Down is something else again.Let me try to describe the experience of reading it.On the very first page, my skin started to tingle with excitement. This tingling intensified throughout the extraordinary first chapter. Soon it seriously felt as if a psychic cloud of bees had surrounded me. I kept saying: oh my God, oh my God, oh my GOD.Would you possibly believe me if I said this level of excitement, breathlessness, euphoria, sheer awe was somehow unflaggingly sustained over more than 350 pages?Here is something that will sound hyperbolic but is the literal truth: after more than 50 years of reading everything in sight, or trying to, I have never, ever read a book I admire more than this one.After years and years of being really really good, in my opinion Gina has become a true master. I see this as belonging with writers like Alice Munro and Toni Morrison and Kazuo Ishiguro and Colson Whitehead and David Foster Wallace in the very, very top tier of the finest contemporary lit. The stratosphere.Blow Your House Down is a memoir about – if it had to be condensed to a tagline – leaving her longtime husband for her lover. It is also Shakespearean in its depth and breadth in terms of all else it touches on and it is at once gorgeously, profoundly erotic AND feminist.It just received a starred review from Publisher’s Weekly. This is the very, very least of what this book is going to get if there is any justice whatsoever in this world.
