Now, two years after her son's horrific rampage, Eva comes to terms with her role as Kevin's mother in a series of startlingly direct correspondences with her absent husband Franklyn about their son's upbringing. Fearing that her own shortcomings may have shaped what her son has become, she confesses to a deep, long-standing ambivalence about motherhood. How much is her fault? In Lionel Shriver's hands this sensational, chilling and memorable story of a woman who raised a monster becomes a metaphor for the larger tragedy - the tragedy of a country where everything works, nobody starves, and anything can be bought but a sense of purpose. <br /><br />Summary from publisher Serpent's Tail: <strong><a href="https://serpentstail.com/we-need-to-talk-about-kevin.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://serpentstail.com/we-need-to-talk-about-kevin.html</a></strong> Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource Book Language A language of the resource English Coverage The spatial or temporal topic of the resource, the spatial applicability of the resource, or the jurisdiction under which the resource is relevant Reader reviews of <em>We Need to Talk about Kevin</em> from Goodreads: <strong><a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/80660.We_Need_to_Talk_About_Kevin" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/80660.We_Need_to_Talk_About_Kevin</a></strong>
