'Berg oozes warmth, wisdom and generosity of spirit. Her writing is quite brilliant' Anna Maxted

When is a marriage worth saving, and when is it worth letting go?'He felt his stomach tighten, his heart begin to race. The coffeemaker beeped, signalling its readiness, and Ellen got up and poured two mugs. She set one in front of Griffin, one in front of herself. Griffin watched the steam rise up and curl back on itself, then dissipate. He said quietly, ""I'm not going anywhere."" ""Pardon?"" ""I said, I'm not going anywhere. I'm not moving."" She nodded. ""I see. Well, I can't. I have to be here to take care of Zoe."" Griffin pictured his daughter, a redheaded beauty who would knock the stuffing out of any man who crossed her. ""All right, you can stay, too,"" he told Ellen. ""Griffin. One of us has to go."" In Say When, Elizabeth Berg negotiates perfectly the fine balance between humour and poignancy as she charts the days and nights of a family whose normal life has been shattered. Told from the point of view of a man who goes overnight from being a husband to becoming his wife's roommate, this is a gripping and heartfelt story. Praise for Elizabeth Berg'Heartwrenching-Hilarious-Berg sits somewhere between Anne Tyler and Alice Hoffman.' Chicago Sun-Times 'Maybe Freud didn't know the answer to what women want, but Elizabeth Berg certainly does.' USA Today

Reviews for Say When

'Media and Mental Distress is a very timely contribution indeed and one that must be read by professionals, politicians, the public and, perhaps most important of all, by journalists, editors and programme makers whose responsibility for helping us understand and misunderstand the nature of psychiatric illness can no longer be shirked.' Anthony W. Clare MD, Clinical Professor of Psychiatry, Trinity College, Dublin.
