Adrienne Brodeur- WILD GAME: My Mother, Her Lover, and Me
When Adrienne was fourteen, her mother, Malabar, woke her at midnight with five simple words: Ben Souther just kissed me. Adrienne instantly became her mother\u2019s confidante and helpmate, and Malabar came to rely on her daughter to help orchestrate what would become an epic affair with her husband\u2019s closest friend. There were calamitous consequences for everyone involved. WILD GAME is a daughter\u2019s tale of living in the thrall of her magnetic, complicated mother \u2013 a story of resilience and a reminder that we need not be the parents our parents were to us.
