Description:

Una irresistible, hilarante y emotiva novela que se lee compulsivamente y que, entre carcajadas, nos lleva a reflexionar sobre la relación entre madre e hija, el amor, el trabajo y la amistad.

Bernadette Fox es famosa. Para Elgie, su marido y gurú de Microsoft, es una esposa con mucho carácter. Para las madres del colegio privado de Seattle donde lleva a su hija es una deshonra. Para el gremio de arquitectos es un genio, y para Bee, su hija adolescente, es sencillamente mamá.

Esta historia comienza cuando Bee llega a casa con excelentes notas. Sus padres le habían prometido que podría escoger el regalo soñado, y Bee decide que quiere un viaje a la Antártida con ellos. Bernadette, que, entre muchas otras cosas, sufre de agorafobia y odia cualquier tipo de contacto social, no es capaz de decirle que no a su hija, y entonces... Bernadette desaparece.

La intrépida Bee emprende su búsqueda rastreando la correspondencia de su madre: emails, mensajes, cartas secretas, documentos oficiales... todo ellos servirá para conformar una lectura hilarante que nos ayudará a reflexionar sobre las relaciones familiares. Y es que Bernadette, a pesar de todas sus imperfecciones, es un regalo para el lector.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A whip-smart, hysterical dramedy about a family in crisis after the disappearance of its brilliant, misanthropic matriarch.

Bernadette Fox is notorious. To her Microsoft-guru husband, she's a fearlessly opinionated partner; to fellow private-school mothers in Seattle, she's a disgrace; to design mavens, she's 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 Bernadette's 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 daughter's role in an absurd world.
