Perrotta’s seventh novel tells the dual coming-of-age stories of Eve Fletcher and her son. Eve, executive director of a senior center, adjusts to her empty nest and tests the limits of her new freedom by taking a course on gender. But she’s more interested in porn websites and may even have attracted a cyberstalker. Meanwhile her son Brendan, a freshman, is jolted by the reality of a college life that’s less indulgent of his privileged attitudes than he had anticipated. As the two struggle with the unexpected consequences of their behavior, Perrotta, author of Election, Little Children, and The Leftovers, the basis for the HBO series of the same name, paints a sharp, insightful, and very funny picture of life in the digital era.
