A MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK OF 2025: Vogue, Vulture, Harper’s Bazaar, W, Bustle, Lit Hub, The Millions

“Enigmatic, opalescent, so precise.” —Jia Tolentino

“An investigation, an invocation, a mood.” —Becca Rothfeld, *The Washington Post*

An intimate and revealing examination of one of the most profound and transformative relationships: divorce.

For Haley Mlotek, divorce was always a significant presence. As a child, she listened to stories from her twice-divorced grandmother about her former husbands. As a pre-teen, she helped answer calls for her mother’s mediation and marriage counseling practice, even assisting in drafting paperwork for couples going their separate ways. From an early age, she understood divorce as both something to avoid and something to aspire to—an upheaval that could ultimately lead to something better. But after spending twelve years with the man she would eventually marry and then divorce, she was forced to reexamine everything she thought she knew about the institution.

Blending personal narrative with sharp, thoughtful social and literary analysis, *No Fault* offers a moving and insightful look at contemporary divorce—a shared experience that often feels entirely unique. Mlotek delves into what divorce represents in today’s world, who it serves, and why marriage continues to wield such influence. Alongside this exploration, she chronicles her own journey away from marriage and into an uncertain future.

By turns brilliant, funny, and deeply honest, *No Fault* is a striking meditation on marriage, ambition, secrecy, and the complexities of love. With keen insight and emotional depth, Mlotek captures the reality of navigating betrayal, uncertainty, hope, and the search for new beginnings.
