Suspicious texts?
One in five of us will have an affair in our lifetimes – but the reasons behind them might not be what you think.
Psychotherapist Juliet Rosenfeld shares the secrets, lies and motivations behind real affairs, through the lens of five very different true stories.
We meet the man who left his wife in the delivery suite to visit his young mistress and the psychologist who put attraction to a patient above career ethics. We hear from the surgeon who risked everything for someone he'd only ever spoken to online and the previously straight woman who cheated on her husband with a female colleague – and changed all of their lives.
In Affairs, this deeply-concealed but exceptionally common aspect of human behaviour is brought out into the light and explored without judgement or shame.
True personal stories, ground-breaking research and expert psychological analysis come together to change everything you have ever thought about infidelity.
'Smart, absorbing' – Nick Hornby
'Hugely thoughtful and stimulating. . . Can't fail to leave us with new insights on our lives' – Alain de Botton
'I found it brutal, heartbreaking and, in a strange way (after its tales had settled in me) inspiring' – You Magazine

Juliet Rosenfeld is a psychoanalytic psychotherapist and author, living and working in London. In both her clinical work and writing, she has a special interest in couples, and the difficulties they encounter in long term relationships. She has written widely on mental health, and her research work at UCL is focused on the impact of relationship breakdown on society and how we might understand it better from a therapeutic, rather than an economic or cultural perspective. Juliet studied at Oxford, then worked in advertising, and briefly the civil service, before retraining as a psychotherapist twenty years ago. She is Clinical Trustee of the Freud Museum and the author of Affairs: True Stories of Love, Lies, Hope and Desire.
