Reseña del editor:

Aspiring feminist and underappreciated housewife Portia Kane leaves her undeserving husband in search of her high school English teacher in this quirky ode to love, faith, and hair metal the latest oddball masterpiece from NYT bestselling author of The Silver Linings Playbook and The Good Luck of Right Now, a writer of prose that is simultaneously funny and devastating (Boston Globe), Matthew Quick.

Portia Kane is having a meltdown. After escaping her ritzy Florida life and her cheating pornographer husband, she finds herself transported back to South Jersey, where things remain largely unchanged from her unhappy childhood. In need of saving herself, she sets out to find and resurrect a beloved high school English teacher who has retired after a traumatic incident. Will a sassy nun, an ex-heroin addict, a metal-head little boy, and her hoarder mother help or hurt her chances in this bid for renewed hope in the human race? This is a story of the great highs and lows of existence: the heartache and daring choices it takes to become the person you know (deep down) you are meant to be.
