Publisher Comments:

Lionel Shriver tells a compelling, absorbing and resonant story while framing these horrifying tableaux of teenage carnage as metaphors for the larger tragedy - the tragedy of a country where everything works, nobody starves, and anything can be bought but a sense of purpose.

A very disturbing read, but one I recommend highly to anyone who has ever wondered about their capacity for parenthood. Here's the dark side -- with absolutely nothing held back. Gripping, harrowing, and rings true right to the end. This is not a feel-good book, and it will leave you marked. Shriver has captured the minutiae and the bizarreness of family relationships with searing accuracy. A great one to chew over months later.
