\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<\/strong><\/u>\r\n\r\nIn this taut and explosive debut novel, one lapse in judgement lands a young mother in a government reform program where custody of her child hangs in the balance.<\/b><\/p>\n
Frida Liu is struggling. She doesn\u2019t have a career worthy of her Chinese immigrant parents\u2019 sacrifices. She can\u2019t persuade her husband, Gust, to give up his wellness-obsessed younger mistress. Only with Harriet, their cherubic daughter, does Frida finally attain the perfection expected of her. Harriet may be all she has, but she is just enough.<\/p>\n
Until Frida has a very bad day.
\nThe state has its eyes on mothers like Frida. The ones who check their phones, letting their children get injured on the playground; who let their children walk home alone. Because of one moment of poor judgment, a host of government officials will now determine if Frida is a candidate for a Big Brother-like institution that measures the success or failure of a mother\u2019s devotion.<\/p>\n
Faced with the possibility of losing Harriet, Frida must prove that a bad mother can be redeemed. That she can learn to be good.
\nA searing page-turner that is also a transgressive novel of ideas about the perils of \u201cperfect\u201d upper-middle class parenting; the violence enacted upon women by both the state and, at times, one another; the systems that separate families; and the boundlessness of love, The School for Good Mothers<\/i> introduces, in Frida, an everywoman for the ages. Using dark wit to explore the pains and joys of the deepest ties that bind us, Chan has written a modern literary classic.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\r\n<\/p>\r\n<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<\/tbody>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n
