Happenstance: The Husband’s Story, The Wife’s Story by Carol Shields is a novel about a marriage seen from two different viewpoints.

The book is divided into two parts. One part follows Brenda, the wife, and the other follows Jack, the husband. Readers can start with either story.

Brenda leaves home for a few days to attend a quilting conference. This short trip gives her time to think about her life, marriage, and personal dreams.

Meanwhile, Jack stays home with their children. He faces small struggles and starts questioning his own choices and identity.

While apart, both Brenda and Jack reflect on their relationship, their roles, and how life has shaped them.

The novel explores love, change, and the quiet moments that define a marriage.
