Book Summary

A "delicious" (Rebecca Makkai) and "deeply compelling" (Lauren Groff) debut novel set at a 1950s Reno "divorce ranch," about the complex friendship between two women who dare to imagine a different future

Lois Saunders thought that marrying the right man would finally cure her loneliness. But as picture-perfect as her husband is, she is suffocating in their loveless marriage. In 1951, though, unhappiness is hardly grounds for divorce―except in Reno, Nevada.

At the Golden Yarrow, the most respectable of Reno's famous "divorce ranches," Lois finds herself living with half a dozen other would-be divorcees, all in Reno for the six weeks' residency that is the state's only divorce requirement. They spend their days riding horses and their nights flirting with cowboys, and it's as wild and fun as Lake Forest, Illinois, is prim and stifling. But it isn't until Greer Lang arrives that Lois's world truly cracks open. Gorgeous, beguiling, and completely indifferent to societal convention, Greer is unlike anyone Lois has ever met―and she sees something in Lois that no one else ever has. Under her influence, Lois begins to push against the limits that have always restrained her. But how much can she really trust her mysterious new friend? And how far will she go to forge her independence, on her own terms?

Set in the glamorous, dizzying world of 1950s Reno, where housewives and movie stars rubbed shoulders at gin-soaked casinos, The Divorcees is a riveting page-turner and a dazzling exploration of female friendship, desire, and freedom.

  1. What do you make of the immediate connection between Lois and Greer, from their first meeting? Given Greer's actions, do you see that relationship as one-sided on Lois's part, or do you think Greer was genuinely drawn to Lois, too? Explain.
  2. When the other women at the Golden Yarrow ask about Lois's divorce, she explains, "I just felt that—if I stayed with him—I'd, not explode exactly, that sounds too violent or exciting even, but collapse in on myself. That I'd disappear." What do you think she means? How do you understand her marriage to Lawrence? Why was it so damaging to Lois?
  3. Why do you think Rita and Lois have such a testy relationship? Why does Lois struggle to make friends in Lake Forest and at the ...

Media Reviews

"[R]eaders will eagerly follow Beaird's skillful plotting and appealing characters all the way through the final page. This author is one to watch." —Publishers Weekly

"A transporting psychological novel of friendship and betrayal, with the moody period feel of a Hitchcock film." —Kirkus Reviews

"The history of 'divorce ranches' in the United States is fascinating as depicted in this novel, and Lois's growing independence is compelling. A good choice for readers and book groups interested in 20th-century historical fiction that deals with women's issues." —Library Journal

"Beaird's debut is a searing, painfully honest story about the difficulties women faced in the 1950s and the lengths to which they would go to gain their freedom. Lois and Greer are brilliantly written, utterly different, and yet each of them is desperate, and both are willing to push themselves to extreme limits to discover who they are, what they want, and what they truly deserve." —Booklist

"This is the novel I've always wanted to read about divorce in midcentury America: the glamour and underbelly of Reno's divorce ranches, the support of female friendship, and the impossibility (and glorious possibilities) of starting over as a single woman. The Divorcées is a delicious literary page-turner from a fierce new voice." ―Rebecca Makkai, New York Times bestselling author of I Have Some Questions for You and The Great Believers

"The Divorcées is gorgeously crafted, perfectly balanced, and full of complex, moving and vividly wrought characters. The sunshot pool at the Golden Yarrow, the searing desert heat, the dark glamour of the casinos will stay with me for a long time. Rowan Beaird writes with such ease and confidence that it's hard to believe this novel is her first. An excellent, deeply compelling read." ―Lauren Groff, New York Times bestselling author of Matrix and Fates and Furies

"A stunning debut, Rowan Beaird's The Divorcées is a glittering desert mirage behind which lurks a shocking web of secrets. Despite the new friendships and lives being built at the Golden Yarrow, each woman on the ranch harbors a truth they aren't willing to share: that they're playing a part and they're willing to do whatever it takes to keep the fiction alive. Tense, dark, and richly layered, lovers of Patricia Highsmith will devour this compulsively readable, standout novel." ―Katy Hays, New York Times bestselling author of The Cloisters

"The Divorcées is my favorite kind of novel: a beautifully written, wholly immersive exploration of the performances women employ for survival. Set amid the heady glamour of Reno's divorce ranches, The Divorcées mines what we will do for acceptance, belonging, and the privilege of carving out a life for ourselves. Rowan Beaird writes with both deep compassion and merciless precision―a fierce talent." ―Katie Gutierrez, national bestselling author of More Than You'll Ever Know

"The Divorcées, a sultry fever dream of a novel set on a Reno divorce ranch in the 1950s, should be read by a pool on a blisteringly hot day, preferably with a drink in hand. Its lush, perfectly wrought prose―and the secrets and deceptions at the center of the seductive plot―will unsettle you and keep you turning the pages. This book shimmers and startles on every page." ―Whitney Scharer, author of The Age of Light

"If Patricia Highsmith and George Cukor teamed up to reimagine Thelma and Louise, it might look something like this smoldering, addictive, and beguiling novel of women on the verge. Whether they're on the verge of dissolution, liberation, or some fraught state in-between, Rowan Beaird captures their becoming in prose that thrums with an anxious and defiant eros. A knockout of a debut." ―Christopher Castellani, author of Leading Men

"The women of The Divorcées captivated me: drenched in desert light, searching for themselves in every possible mirror. Their relationships to one another, gorgeously rendered, have an intensity fueled by self-discovery―these are connections full of deep understanding, shocking deception, devastating betrayal, and real love. Beaird is a wondrous new talent who has given us an unforgettable, lushly assured novel." ―Clare Beams, author of The Illness Lesson

Russ in the Territory

Engaging and exquisitely written
This novel is a work of literary fiction about a time, not so long ago, when most women trapped in loveless, impossible marriages had essentially no rights, no agency, and no resources to enable escape. They remained, in essence, the property of a man. Nevada provided what was then the least onerous route to obtain a divorce, and much of the book covers the six-week period of residency required to file there.

During this time, Lois begins to sort out not only the details of the process, but also – and more importantly – what comes afterward. Who will she be when she is no longer a wife, what will she do with her new freedoms, how will she survive? She has never had a profession, has never been responsible for herself, has not ever been allowed to make decisions for herself.

She, and the other divorcees at the ranch, have much to learn, with little guidance. When Lois finally encounters a woman who, unlike herself, appears to actually know what she’s doing, appears to have agency, it transforms her. But this event also highlights some of the dangers of a world that has literally been beyond her ability to imagine. In this sense, the book is a kind of modern Bildungsroman, which also reminds us just how recently basic human rights were extended to women, and how fragile they remain. I loved this book, both because it matters, and because the exquisite prose is such a joy to read.

Addictive, dramatic, timely
I got hooked from the start on this story.

Lois Saunders felt crushed by her loveless marriage and besides has always felt like an outsider, a young woman with a suspect background of new money and ethnicity in a staunch and wealthy WASP stronghold.

We meet Lois as the novel opens on her train ride to the Golden Yarrow, a glamorous Nevada divorce ranch where six weeks of residency will qualify you for a divorce in 1951 America, when women have few rights.

Lois has taken the plunge and abandoned her insulated life but comes to realize that all she has before her after the divorce is the prospect of going back to live in her father's house. At the Golden Yarrow, though, she meets a new guest — Greer is enigmatic and fascinating and a bit dangerous, and through her Lois begins to see herself in a new light. The novel builds to a crisis where Lois is forced to ask, how far will she go to create a new life for herself?

After reading a couple of reviews I want to add: do not expect a frothy romp about swinging divorcees. This novel builds slowly and powerfully to a very satisfying conclusion. Highly recommend.

Character-driven historical fiction with a twist you see coming yet you applaud anyway
Set on a 1950's divorce ranch, this excellent debut novel taps into the fascinating, not-often-explored history of Reno, Nevada's quickie divorce industry. Lois Saunders, née Gorski, loves her alone time, her free time, especially when it comes to movies and movie ephemera. She has a talent for bringing out a woman's best features with makeup, but she's not great with other women in general, or at least the socially-reined-in women she's been around all her life. She doesn't 'get' them; they don't 'get' her. So when she meets fellow divorcée Greer, an odd but charismatic and glamorous woman who seems to see Lois, she's drawn into Greer's orbit. Will Lois be able to shrug off her past, the social constraints and men -- her father and soon-to-be-ex-husband -- who have prescribed her life thus far? Will Greer be there for her instead? I was enthralled with the characters, the historical details, and the vibrant writing of this novel, but I especially appreciated the literal ending of the book, which uses a classic and powerful storytelling technique that signals a pivot. Brava, Rowan Beaird. I can't imagine this book won't be a movie itself someday soon.

Get Started Already on Your Next Novel
I thoroughly enjoyed reading Beaird's novel, the Divorcees. I liked this author's writing style especially since I had no prior knowledge of Reno's famous 'divorce ranches'. So, I was intrigued from the start. Add in interesting characters, especially Greer Lang and this book becomes very hard to put down. It was definitely a page turner for me! I'm looking forward to reading Rowan's next book.

Did What Went on in Reno Stay in Reno?
THE DIVORCÉES, a novel by Rowan Beaird, invites us into the peculiar world of an up-scale "divorce ranch" in 1950s Reno, Nevada where women come to establish a six-week residency before filing for a quick and easy divorce. Lois Saunders arrives by train from Lake Forest Illinois to stay at the Golden Yarrow, one of the posher divorce ranches in this self-described "divorce capital of the world." Lois, 25, naïve and dependent on her father to pay for her stay, joins four other women, each from elsewhere, each seeking to escape a troubled marriage.

Along with a divorce lawyer, the ranch provides each guest with activities like swimming and horseback riding, introducing them to the surrounding desert landscape and raucous cowboy culture, which are artfully drawn by the author. Lois fights feelings of inferiority, a fear of not fitting in. From inside her head, we sense her discomfort, believing she's "not one of them." "Worry worms through her" when she learns that her soon-to-be ex-husband and her controlling father have been meeting to parse out her future. Through the experiences of Lois and the other women, we witness some of the legal and cultural inequities many married women endured in the 50s.

When an enigmatic new arrival shows up the tables tilt. Greer, free thinking and magnetic, encourages Lois and the others to indulge in the freewheeling world of gambling and excessive drinking. Vivid tableaux of the wannabe glamorous Harrah's casino are replete with divorcées and disreputable men on the prowl. Nightly, liquor flows like raging rapids and women never say no to another drink. Greer wields mysterious sway over them all, but she homes in on Lois, sensing she needs a push toward independence. Greer teaches her protégée to regard male casino patrons as convenient marks, good for a quick tryst, free drinks and pilfered poker chips.

Beaird challenges the reader to guess what Greer is up to. Why has she revealed so little about herself? Why does she befriend Lois, teaching her aggressive moves like how to spit in a man's face after knocking his drink from the bar?

A plan hatched near the climax of the novel is telegraphed in the prologue, but the reader must plow to the end to find out the "what, why and where" of Greer's scheme. Overall, The Divorcées is a romp loaded with fascinating details evoking a time and place you can verify with a simple google search. Great for a vacation read!

Belief in a Future
The reader is in for a delightful treat with this debut novel Divorcee's by Rowan Beaird. Although this novel was an easy read, it was filled with the complexities of choices. Set in the 1950's where life for women was mostly dictated to them by men, a divorce could be granted with enough money and means to arrange the legal work. Located in Reno Nevada lies an established ranch for women, (a haven run by a woman), to reside for six weeks in order to be granted an uncontested, legally binding quick divorce.

Here we meet Lois, a rather lonely, naïve young woman who craves friendship and whose imagination is fluid with dreams of a happy future. Always with a deep desire to fit in, Lois is introduced to Greer, who is thought to be wealthy, independent and somewhat reckless in her behavior. They form a bond based on future adventures, trust and a new acceptance. Lois believes in all the plans that she and Greer have made together and what the future will bring.

In general, people weigh out their options in making a decision. Those decisions are often based on what is known and a bit of the unknown. This novel shows clarity of intentions based on personal knowledge but not always shared with one another.
