Don't Worry, Life Is Easy

Praise for the series:

"Profoundly moving and expertly told, Happy People confronts life's most nightmarish tragedy with an unblinking examination. Diane's journey to find meaning again is at once charming and heartbreaking, and I found myself pulling for her to seek out her next experience of love. The wisdom and magic in these pages will linger long after the book is closed."
--- New York Times bestselling author Susan Wiggs

"A heartbreaking story of love and loss that will twist readers up in knots. . . Essential for any foreign literature or women's fiction collection."
--- Library Journal

"Martin-Lugand's sparse but emotionally forceful style... catches the sweeter moments between two people embittered by loss."

--- Kirkus Reviews

"The energy that Agnès Martin-Lugand is able to convey with this storm is enormous. This is one roller-coaster of a book, but I loved every moment of it. . . Anyone who has ever experienced a feeling of any kind, ever, will enjoy this novel."

--- San Francisco Book Review

Praise for Don't Worry, Life is Easy:

"...[T]his sequel is just as good as the first novel. Agnès succeeded in reducing me to a sobbing mess more than once. She writes so beautifully; simply said but so impactful... life can be so very painful, unfair, and dark. But if we are brave enough, it can also be pretty wonderful, too."

"The characters are well developed... the relationships are... done so well[,] you might cry by the end of the book. (I admit to nothing.) If you've ever faced a loss in your life and then been given the chance to fill that gap with something new, you will get this book."

"A deftly written and thoroughly absorbing read... an original and entertaining novel."
