Admission by Jean Hanff Korelitz

Now a film starring Tina Fey and Paul Rudd 'A book you can't put down.' O, The Oprah Magazine For years, thirty-eight-year-old Portia Nathan has hidden behind her busy career as a Princeton admissions officer and her less than passionate relationship. Then the piece of her past that she has tried so hard to bury resurfaces, catapulting her on an extraordinary journey of the heart that challenges everything she ever thought she believed. Soon, just as Portia must decide on the fates of thousands of bright students regarding their admission to university, so too must she confront the life-altering decisions she made long ago.
A book you can't put downO, The Oprah Magazine 'Sharply observed and written ... Korelitz knows how to tell a story. Atlantic Monthly 'A gripping portrait of a woman in crisis from the extremely gifted Korelitz.' Kirkus Review Wise and engaging. USA Today Extremely satisfying. Los Angeles Times
