To her Microsoft-guru husband, she's a fearlessly opinionated partner; to fellow private-school mothers in Seattle, she's a disgrace; to design mavens, she's a revolutionary architect; and to 15-year-old Bee, she is her best friend and, simply, Mom. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Then Bernadette vanishes. It all began when Bee aced her report card and claimed her promised reward: a family trip to Antarctica. But Bernadette's intensifying allergy to Seattle--and people in general--has made her so agoraphobic that a virtual assistant in India now runs her most basic errands. A trip to the end of the earth is problematic. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e To find her mother, Bee compiles email messages, official documents, and secret correspondence--creating a compulsively readable and surprisingly touching novel about misplaced genius and a mother and daughter's role in an absurd world.","brand":"Little Brown and Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48855987421389,"sku":"9780316415859","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0557\/1529\/9533\/files\/imageloader_d9cbfd19-da72-478e-8083-b9aaf949b207.jpg?v=1794509661","url":"https:\/\/booksatmidnight.com\/products\/whered-you-go-bernadette-1","provider":"Books At Midnight","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
