The School for Good Mothers is a taut and explosive debut novel, wherein one lapse in judgement lands a young mother in a government reform program while custody of her child hangs in the balance . . .
A searing page-turner, The School for Good Mothers introduces, in Frida, an everywoman for the ages. Using dark wit to explore the pains and joys of the deepest ties that bind us, Chan has written a modern literary classic.
"The School for Good Mothers picks up the mantle of writers like Margaret Atwood and Kazuo Ishiguro, with their skin-crawling themes of surveillance, control, and technology. At a moment when state control over women’s bodies (and autonomy) feels ever more chilling, Chan's book feels horrifyingly unbelievable and eerily prescient all at once.” -- Vogue
