Summary
Where'd You Go, Bernadette
Bernadette Fox is notorious. To her Microsoft-guru husband, shes a fearlessly opinionated partner; to fellow private-school mothers in Seattle, shes a disgrace; to design mavens, shes a revolutionary architect, and to 15-year-old Bee, she is a best friend and, simply, Mom. Then Bernadette disappears. It began when Bee aced her report card and claimed her promised reward: a family trip to Antarctica. But Bernadettes intensifying allergy to Seattle--and people in general--has made her so agoraphobic that a virtual assistant in India now runs her most basic errands. A trip to the end of the earth is problematic. To find her mother, Bee compiles email messages, official documents, secret correspondence--creating a compulsively readable and touching novel about misplaced genius and a mother and daughters role in an absurd world.
