In Perfect Life, Jessica Shattuck once again displays her “skewering gift for social commentary” (New York Times) in a uniquely modern chronicle of conception in the age of infinite possibility.
Two years ago, Neil Banks walked into a bathroom in the Pacific Fertility Center to provide his former college girlfriend, Jenny Callahan, with the biological material needed to conceive a child. Becoming a father was not part of the deal: adrift in his postmodern Los Angeles lifestyle, he signed away all paternity rights. But on the day of the baby’s christening, Neil turns up at the church. His unexpected―and unauthorized―return to Jenny’s privileged East Coast world sends a shockwave through the families of Jenny and her two college roommates―and sets off this keenly observed novel about fertility, biology, love, and American excess."synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
