Book Description
================
From Jennifer Weiner, one of America's most celebrated and beloved writers,
comes a new novel that takes on the controversial topic of women and
addiction and proves to be her most absorbing and timely story yet.Gillian
Weiss has a great job...a gorgeous husband...an adorable daughter...and
a secret.
On the outside, Gillian is a normal suburban mother - until a website
she develops takes off, giving her more money than she ever dreamed
of, and her life starts falling apart. Suddenly, her husband's becoming
distant, her daughter's acting spoiled, her father is dealing with early
Alzheimer's, and her mother's barely dealing at all. As she struggles
to be a good daughter, a good mother, and a good wife, to run her business
and serve as Class Mother in her daughter's snooty private school (and
maybe get to the gym every once in a while), Gillian finds that the
prescription painkillers she took for a back injury help her deal with
more than just physical pain - they give her energy, help her feel calm,
and let her get through her increasingly hectic days.
When her use gets to the point that she can no longer control it - or
hide it - Gillian ends up in a world she never thought she'd experience
outside of a movie theater: rehab. Amid the teenage heroin addicts,
the alcoholic grandmothers, the barely trained "recovery coaches" and
the overwhelmed counselors, Gillian struggles to get sober and ultimately
rebuild a life where she can be a mother, a daughter, a friend, a professional
success...and a woman in recovery.
With a sparkling comedic touch and tender, true-to-life characterizations,
All Fall Down is another classic Jennifer Weiner tale of empowerment
and redemption that will leave readers laughing and crying to the end.-
