My Education

De: Susan Choi

Brought to you by Penguin.

A scorching novel of desire and disaster from the Booker-shortlisted author of Flashlight

Regina Gottlieb had been warned about Professor Nicholas Brodeur long before arriving as a graduate student at his prestigious university. He’s said to lie in the dark while undergraduate women read poetry to him. He’s condemned in restroom graffiti and enjoys films by Roman Polanski.
But no one had warned Regina about his exceptional beauty – or his charismatic, volatile wife. This is the story of Regina’s mistakes, which begin in the bedroom and end – if they do – fifteen years in the future and thousands of miles away.
