Despite being eminently fair to both sides, most liberal reviewers are kvetching because they only wanted to hear one side.From The Atlantic (of all places): [Shriver] has a wry observational intelligence that propels her well beyond her personal orbit. She is also adept at unpacking psychological states and analyzing relationships with almost clinical incisiveness. Her writing is witty, and startlingly precise.Author of 18 books, including: We Need to Talk About KevinManiaThe Mandibles: A Family, 2029-2047
