Ms. Shriver takes a calculated risk . . . but the gamble pays off as she strikes a tone of compelling intimacy., Shriver handles this material, with its potential for cheap sentiment and soap opera plot, with rare skill and sense., It's a harrowing, psychologically astute, sometimes even darkly humorous novel, with a clear-eyed, hard-won ending and a tough-minded sense of the difficult, often painful human enterprise...the best novel of its kind., Ms. Shriver takes a calculated risk...but the gamble pays off as she strikes a tone of compelling intimacy., "Ms. Shriver takes a calculated risk . . . but the gamble pays off as she strikes a tone of compelling intimacy." -- Wall Street Journal "Furiously imagined." -- Seattle Times "An underground feminist hit." -- New York Observer "A slow, magnetic descent into hell that is as fascinating as it is disturbing." -- Cleveland Plain Dealer "Shriver handles this material, with its potential for cheap sentiment and soap opera plot, with rare skill and sense." -- Newark Star Ledger "Powerful [and] harrowing." -- Entertainment Weekly "Impossible to put down." -- Boston Globe

Synopsis
"Impossible to put down. . . . Who, in the end, needs to talk about Kevin? Maybe we all do." -- Boston Globe Acclaimed author Lionel Shriver's gripping international bestseller about motherhood gone awry Shriver's resonant story of a mother's unsettling quest to understand her teenage son's deadly violence, her own ambivalence toward motherhood, and the explosive link between them reverberates with the haunting power of high hopes shattered by dark realities. Eva never really wanted to be a mother--and certainly not the mother of the unlovable boy who murdered seven of his fellow high school students, a cafeteria worker, and a much-adored teacher who tried to befriend him, all two days before his sixteenth birthday. Now, two years later, it is time for her to come to terms with marriage, career, family, parenthood, and Kevin's horrific rampage in a series of startlingly direct correspondences with her estranged husband, Franklin. Uneasy with the sacrifices and social demotion of motherhood from the start, Eva fears that her alarming dislike for her own son may be responsible for driving him so nihilistically off the rails. Like Shriver's charged and incisive later novels, including So Much for That and The Post-Birthday World, We Need to Talk About Kevin is a piercing, unforgettable, and penetrating exploration of violence, family ties, and responsibility., Now a major motion picture by Lynne Ramsay, starring Tilda Swinton and John C. Reilly,Lionel Shriver's resonant story of a mother's unsettling quest to understandher teenage son's deadly violence, her own ambivalence toward motherhood, andthe explosive link between them reverberates with the haunting power of highhopes shattered by dark realities.
