New York Times bestseller! Now a major Sky/HBO TV series From the
bestselling author of The Leftovers and Little Children comes a
penetrating and hilarious new novel about sex, love, and identity
on the frontlines of America's culture wars. Eve Fletcher is trying
to figure out what comes next. A forty-six-year-old divorcee whose
beloved only child has just left for college, Eve is struggling to
adjust to her empty nest when one night her phone lights up with a
text message. Sent from an anonymous number, the mysterious sender
tells Eve, "U R my MILF!" Over the months that follow, that message
comes to obsess Eve. While leading her all-too-placid life-serving
as Executive Director of the local senior center by day and taking
a community college course on Gender and Society at night-Eve can't
curtail her own interest in a porn website called MILFateria.com,
which features the erotic exploits of ordinary, middle-aged women
like herself. Before long, Eve's online fixations begin to spill
over into real life, revealing new romantic possibilities that
threaten to upend her quiet suburban existence. Meanwhile, miles
away at the state college, Eve's son Brendan-a jock and aspiring
frat boy-discovers that his new campus isn't nearly as welcoming to
his hard-partying lifestyle as he had imagined. Only a few weeks
into his freshman year, Brendan is floundering in a college
environment that challenges his white-dude privilege and shames him
for his outmoded, chauvinistic ideas of sex. As the New England
autumn turns cold, both mother and son find themselves enmeshed in
morally fraught situations that come to a head on one fateful
November night. Sharp, witty, and provocative, Mrs. Fletcher is a
timeless examination of sexuality, identity, parenthood, and the
big clarifying mistakes people can make when they're no longer sure
of who they are or where they belong.
