A wife writing to her husband about their sociopathic son

Post by dwg »

My girlfriend told me about a book she loved which I think was written in the form of letters from a wife to her husband about her sociopathic son. I don't want to spoil it for anyone who hasn't read it so I won't go into more detail but I'm hoping someone might recognise this story line and tell me what it was called or who wrote it... Apparently the author has just released a new book and I'd like to buy it for a Christmas present. Anyone out there no what book I'm talking about?

It sounds like 'We need to talk about Kevin' by Lionel Shriver. It is an awesome book. I became a fan of Shriver after I read this book.

And you want to buy the book 'So much for that'? But, isn't that releasing in March 2010?

That sounds like a good book. I've added it to my wishlist. :)
