About this listen

After a fairy-tale courtship in 1980s New York City, Maggie's young marriage shatters when her "perfect" husband - a star editor at the Wall Street Journal - is diagnosed with and dies of AIDS, leaving her with two young children in a city electrified by paranoia about the new epidemic. Devastated by his betrayal, Maggie struggles to protect herself and her children from stigma, keeping the circumstances of her husband's death a secret for nearly 25 years. It is only when a journey of self-discovery aligns with her children's coming of age and a new world of sexual tolerance that she can finally embrace the truth and set herself free.

With a foreword by former Wall Street Journal assistant managing editor Laura Landro and an afterword by psychologist Dr. Dale Atkins, who frequently appears on The Today Show, Now Everyone Will Know is an honest, unflinching memoir about the damaging nature of family secrets and an inspiring call to embrace every truth - the good, the bad, the ugly - that makes us who we are.

Love this book

Not always a fan of memoirs, this book touched my heart and soul. I appreciate Maggie’s open and honest story of her life with her husband and family and the secret they kept for many, many years. The narration was great! Bravo!!!!

Heartbreaking

While Maggie’s story is heartbreaking, she tells it with such an honest and respectful manner that you feel you are with her and her children during this time of crisis and secrecy in our society. I am so glad that her children have gotten to know the father the lost, that Maggie was able to find a partner in Dave that she needed, and that she too was able to overcome her husband’s infidelity and secrets. Such a strong woman.
