Or, at least, over the women. One by one throughout the high school community, perfectly healthy, normal women and teenage girls turn away from their husbands and boyfriends in the bedroom, for reasons they don't really understand. As the women worry over their loss of passion and the men become by turns unhappy, offended, and above all, confused, both sides are forced to look at their shared history, and at their sexual selves in a new light. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eMeg Wolitzers's newest book, \u003ci\u003eThe Interestings\u003c\/i\u003e, is now available from Riverhead Books.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Riverhead Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/06\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781594485657\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.51lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.95h x 5.28w x 0.83d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eEntertainment Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/24\/2012 pg. 81\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times Book Review\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/08\/2012 pg. 32\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Meg Wolitzer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42925086572725,"sku":"9781594485657","price":18.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_9ee2983e-eedf-4004-808c-06f019a0a29d.jpg?v=1687845239","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/the-uncoupling-9781594485657","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
