If you have just been through a divorce, then life might feel unstable and your issues and responsibilities may feel overwhelming. There are many men who have been in your position and they are more than willing to offer up advice and guidance on how to deal with this time. Here are 7 books that every divorced man should read.
#1 Elusive Innocence by Dean Tong
In this #MeToo climate and sexual impropriety allegations lurking around the next curve, it's too easy for a divorcing spouse to wrongly accuse a loving father and have motive, method and opportunity to do so wielding a child as a pawn, weapon, and tool so that s/he can garner equity-at-law in Court.

#2 Storms Canβt Hurt The Sky by Gabriel Cohen
He (Cohen) is very plain in his struggle with his anger and he decided to quest out for peace through learning about Buddhism. What I enjoyed the most about this book was how plain his pain and struggle was -- even while trying to do the right thing. The quote 'Perfect is the enemy of better' comes to mind when reading this book as the process through a divorce isn't an easy one. It can be very messy but the goal is to have a focus on trying to build a plan so you can try and get back on a path towards recovery and resources when you fall off.

#7 How to Survive the Loss of a Love by Peter McWilliams
Although the title suggests that this book deals with surviving the death of a loved one, it actually speaks to the pain of separation and loss of dreams. Even when a divorce is one of choice, there is a feeling of failure and self-condemnation attached. This book speaks to that, and more, clearly and sympathetically. It makes complete sense and reads easily (a gift to the muddled mind). My first copy handed to me by a wise friend. I have since given dozens away.
