From the New York Times bestselling author of You Should Have Known (adapted as "The Undoing" on HBO) comes another page-turning masterpiece, this time on college admissions—now a major motion picture starring Tina Fey and Paul Rudd.
"Admissions. Admission. Aren't there two sides to the word? And two opposing sides...It's what we let in, but it's also what we let out."
For
years, 38-year-old Portia Nathan has avoided the past, hiding behind
her busy (and sometimes punishing) career as a Princeton University
admissions officer and her dependable domestic life. Her reluctance to
confront the truth is suddenly overwhelmed by the resurfacing of a
life-altering decision, and Portia is faced with an extraordinary test.
Just as thousands of the nation's brightest students await her decision
regarding their academic admission, so too must Portia decide whether to
make her own ultimate admission.
Admission is at once a
fascinating look at the complex college admissions process and an
emotional examination of what happens when the secrets of the past
return and shake a woman's life to its core.
