New York Times bestseller! 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.
