6/29/2023 0 Comments The end of normal stephanie madoffShe meets Mark benignly on a blind date through a friend at her gym. Instead, she brings a real take on the shenanigans that confront her. What’s interesting is Stephanie is not your typical social climber. This includes the wife of Mark’s brother Andy, her mother-in-law Ruth, and Mark’s ex-wife. The book begins with the author’s story of being a wealthy wife, and the petty interactions that play among the women in her immediate circle. Through her openness, we get to know Stephanie and discover that at heart, she’s every bit as human as each of us. In fact, the book’s final chapters share the painful details of a wife coping with loss. Readers may be tempted to write off The End of Normal as a book to heal by simply because of its affiliation with the notorious Madoff name. This book exposes three elements: first, a girl’s view of the interactions among wives of the wealthy second, the expected behind-the-scenes glimpse at Bernie Madoff and finally, Stephanie’s personal experience following the suicide of her husband. But the real value of the book is the experience she shares of her pain following Mark’s suicide, two years to the day after his father confesses to his Ponzi scheme. At first glance, Stephanie Madoff’s Mack’s The End of Normal grabs our attention solely because she’s the wife of one of Bernie Madoff’s two sons, Mark.
