A tale of two halves

What does " a tale of two halves" mean? Tks!
  

Top answer

Just what it says, I presume. It is not an idiom. I don't suppose you'd have a bit more context so that we'd have a fair chance at guessing the meaning?

I come across this phrase every now and then, and couldn't resist the urge to have a quick answer. Thank you for letting me know it is not an idiom.

Look what I have found :

If something's a game of two halves, it means that it's possible for someone's fortunes or luck to change and the person who's winning could end up a loser.

I think it will help to understand it...
