Then Hillary goes to college, and her star rises. At Yale Law School, she continues to be a leader—and catches the eye of driven, handsome and charismatic Bill.

Critics Review

Hugely enjoyable

This addictive novel is the SLIDING DOORS of American politics. Gripping * STYLIST *
A lot of fun. A wonderful, sad dream of what might have happened * GUARDIAN *
An explosive new book * GRAZIA *
Sittenfeld’s RODHAM offers the catharsis of uncomplicated regret * THE NEW YORKER *
While telling a compelling story, RODHAM provides an insightful analysis of the function of sexim in our political discourse. Sittenfeld is at her wittiest when recreating the men who dominate American politics * WASHINGTON POST *
A nauseating, moving, morally suggestive, technically brilliant book that made me think more than any in recent memory about the aims and limits of fiction * NPR *
Hugely enjoyable * WALL STREET JOURNAL *
This isn’t just fiction as fantasy, this is fiction as therapy. A serious work of literary fiction designed to rally the spirits of liberal readers * SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE *

‘An ingenious yet plausible glimpse of an alternative reality, and so involving that it occasionally comes as a shock to realise that there is a different reality, and we are living in it’

* THE SPECTATOR *
‘By tilting history on its side, Sittenfeld makes Hillary seem a fresh character and remarkably sympathetic’ * EVENING STANDARD *
