Heartbreak, named one of the best audiobooks of the year by Apple, "thrives as an audiobook" (New York Times Book Review), merging science and self-discovery in an immersive experience that changes the way we think about loneliness, health, and what it means to fall in and out of love. It was written by Florence Williams.

"Part memoir, part medical investigation, “Heartbreak” thrives as an audiobook. Williams’s narration is interspersed with recordings of her conversations with lovers and experts, as well as her own journal entries, which are like getting a tour of the restaurant kitchen — seeing what the conclusions looked like when they were still questions." -- New York Times Book Review

"[A] show-stopping, offbeat story about the science of heartbreak...a courageous, whirlwind tale of healing and self-discovery." - Publishers Weekly (starred review)

A deep dive into the meaning of heartbreak. ...Complex and thoughtfully researched, this book appealingly chronicles healing from emotional loss and offers fascinating scientific insights into the mechanics and impacts of romantic grief. A provocative and rewarding reading experience. —Kirkus Reviews

“Heartbreak by Florence Williams is a graceful account of losing a marriage and finding another way of being. With vulnerability and veracity, Williams seeks various modes of understanding the physicality of loss. Whoever has felt the blistering heat of a broken heart will thank Florence Williams for a clear moving river of discoveries.”—Terry Tempest Williams, author of Erosion.
