Young Jane Young - by the Sunday Times bestselling author of Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow

'This sly, exhilarating novel takes on slut-shaming . . . and manages to be hilarious in the process' People 'It's brilliant and hilarious . . . It has a heart. And a spine. It's exactly what we need more of right now.' Chicago Tribune A smart, funny and moving novel that captures not just the mood of political life, but also the double standards alive and well in every aspect of life for women. Aviva Grossman, an ambitious congressional intern in Florida, makes the mistake of having an affair with her boss - and blogging about it. When the affair comes to light, the beloved congressman doesn't take the fall. But Aviva does, and her life is over before it hardly begins: slut-shamed, she becomes a late-night talk show punch line. She sees no way out but to change her name and move to a remote town in Maine. This time, she tries to be smarter about her life and strives to raise her daughter, Ruby, to be strong and confident. But when, at the urging of others, Aviva decides to run for public office herself, that long-ago mistake trails her via the Internet and catches up. In the digital age, the past is never, ever, truly past. And it's only a matter of time until Ruby finds out who her mother was and is forced to reconcile that person with the one she knows. 'A smart, intersectional feminist tour de force' Washington Times
