Mrs. Kimble by Jennifer Haigh

Boy, I keep picking these books with really warped characters! This story is about a man and the many women who love him through his life.

In the beginning you learn that a man has died, it then goes back to the beginning with his first wife and tells this mans story from the perspective of the women and children in his life. He really was a love them and leave them type of guy and discarded his children just as easy. His first wife really fell apart after he left and was never really able to get her act together. The kids had to raise themselves.

The man was such a jerk, it was good to know throughout that he died alone. I just really felt for the women who loved him.
