Wild game. My mother, her lover and me

On a hot July night, Adrienne's mother woke her up with five simple words: "Ben Souter just kissed me!" The daughter instantly became her mother’s accomplice: she helped her deceive her husband, lied so that she could secretly meet with her lover. This affair had disastrous consequences for all the people involved... "The Wild Game" is a brilliant memoir about how loved ones can break our hearts simply because they have access to it, about the lies we plunge ourselves into in order to justify your loved ones and yourself. This is the story of the slow and painful loss of a mother, a reminder that every child should have a childhood, we do not have to repeat the mistakes of our parents, and we have everything to build a happy life according to our own scenario.
