On March 3, 2017, Amy Krouse Rosenthal published a “Modern Love” column in the New York Times titled “You May Want to Marry My Husband.” Written just ten days before she passed away from ovarian cancer, it wasn’t a goodbye—it was a creative, wry, and brutally honest “personal ad” for the man she was leaving behind. She didn’t want him to be alone; she wanted him to find joy again.
In his memoir, “My Wife Said You May Want to Marry Me”, Jason Rosenthal shares the raw, honest reality of what came next. He reflects on his life before, with, and after Amy—navigating the excruciating pain of losing a soulmate while honouring her wish for him to find happiness again.
