Shortly before his sixteenth birthday, Kevin Khatchadourian kills seven of his fellow high-school students, a cafeteria worker and a teacher. He is visted in prison by his mother, Eva, who narrates in a series of letters to her estranged husband, Franklin, the story of Kevin's upbringing. For this powerful, shocking novel, Lionel Shriver was awarded the Orange Prize for Fiction.

"A book about the dangerous distance that exists between what we feel and what we are actually prepared to admit when it comes to family life... a book about what we need to talk about, but can't."
(Guardian)
