Title: We Need to Talk About Kevin Subtitle: A Novel Author: Lionel Shriver Narrator: Coleen Marlo Format: Unabridged Length: 16 hrs and 9 mins Language: English Release date: 12-27-11 Publisher: HarperAudio Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 1310 votes Genres: Fiction, Literary Publisher's Summary: Eva never really wanted to be a mother - and certainly not the mother of a boy who ends up murdering seven of his fellow high school students, a cafeteria worker, and a much-adored teacher who tried to befriend him, all two days before his 16th birthday. Now, two years later, it is time for her to come to terms with marriage, career, family, parenthood, and Kevins horrific rampage, in a series of startlingly direct correspondences with her estranged husband, Franklin. Uneasy with the sacrifices and social demotion of motherhood from the start, Eva fears that her alarming dislike for her own son may be responsible for driving him so nihilistically off the rails. Critic Reviews: Shriver handles this material, with its potential for cheap sentiment and soap opera plot, with rare skill and sense. (Newark Star Ledger) A slow, magnetic descent into hell that is as fascinating as it is disturbing. (Cleveland Plain Dealer) Powerful [and] harrowing. (Entertainment Weekly)
