Tales from an Ex-Husband

A Story of Survival, Betrayal, and Other Shady Things

By: Harry Carpenter

Narrated by: John Tambascio

Imagine it.

You're sitting at a bar, restaurant, or some other public hangout. You can't help it, but you overhear a conversation. The content catches your ear. It's someone's personal story, struggle, and woes. Not to be a Nosey Nelly, you try to overhear this guy telling his table of buddies a horrendous tale of love, life, and betrayal. It sounds like he went through an ordeal. It's free gossip. It's juicy news. It's also comforting to hear you weren't alone in your nasty blowout relationship.

That's what it's like to listen to this book.

The story delves deep into personal experiences, tragedies, and most of all, abuse. Chapter by chapter, the story unfolds to explore the turbulent relationship with an ex-wife, from meeting back in High School to the ultimate fall of the relationship at the hands of extramarital relationships. Along the way, many people were players in this tale of love, hate, and humor. As it unfolds, the tale will prove humorous, serious, and just plain old head-shaking crazy. Dodging and weaving the crazy, we will go through various mental stages, crazy WTF moments, and sometimes comical points in time throughout the journey.

Wow! Just... wow.

In this episodic tale, Carpenter chronicles his experience with the abuse he endured while with his ex-wife. From the time they first started dating in high school, to the time they were finally divorced, then long after the divorce, this whirlwind of a story will leave you shocked. Listening to this story is like being witness to an epic car crash. The events unfolding are so terrible that you simply cannot take your eyes off of the scene. Carpenter masterfully draws the reader into the story, from one episode to the next, causing you to be fully invested in the experience.

Narrator John Tambascio's conversational tone is like sitting with a friend, or a stranger, at a bar. You've sat down and planned to be there for only an hour, yet what this person has told you is so incredible, you just can't leave. So you're there for almost six hours, listening uncomfortably as he "bears-all" in this story.

I received a complimentary copy of this audiobook in exchange for an honest review.

Get ready for a wild ride

From the beginning of this tale you are entranced with the drama. I couldn’t stop listening to it and enjoyed the humor throughout. I had heard about this crazy wife since I was a private who served in basic training with Harry. But I’m still amazing by the whole story. So glad I got an opportunity to understand Harry’s life and hope that you get the chance to enjoy the drama too.
