Ottieni [Epub] Wild Game: My Mother, Her Lover, and Me
By Adrienne Brodeur
A daughter?s tale of living in the thrall of her magnetic, complicated mother, and the
chilling consequences of her complicity. On a hot July night on Cape Cod when
Adrienne was fourteen, her mother, Malabar, woke her at midnight with five simple
words that would set the course of both of their lives for years to come: Ben Souther
just kissed me.? ? Adrienne instantly became her mother?s confidante and helpmate,
blossoming in the sudden light of her attention, and from then on, Malabar came to
rely on her daughter to help orchestrate what would become an epic affair with her
husband?s closest friend. The affair would have calamitous consequences for
everyone involved, impacting Adrienne?s life in profound ways, driving her into a
precarious marriage of her own, and then into a deep depression. Only years later
will she find the strength to embrace her life?and her mother?on her own terms.
?Wild Game?is a brilliant, timeless memoir about how the people close to us can
break our hearts
