    "description": "Finally, the sequel to the international bestseller and one of the most classic movies of all time, The Graduate, has arrived.\n\nAt the end of Charles Webb's first novel, The Graduate, Benjamin Braddock rescues his beloved Elaine from a marriage made not in heaven, but in California. For over forty years, legions of fans have wondered what happened to the young couple after The Graduate's momentous final scene. The wait is over.\n\nEleven years and 3,000 miles later, Benjamin and Elaine live Westchester County, a suburb of New York City, with their two sons, whom they are educating at home. A continent now stands between them and the boys' surviving grandparent, now known as Nan, but who in former days answered to Mrs. Robinson. The story opens with the household in turmoil as the Westchester School Board attempts to quash the unconventional educational methods the family is practicing. Desperate situations call for desperate remedies\u2014even a cry for help to the mother-in-law from hell, who is only too happy to provide her loving services\u2014but at a price far higher than could be expected.\n\nAt long last, the unforgettable characters that made The Graduate such a classic are back \u2026 and they're better than ever\u2014including, of course, the extraordinary Mrs. Robinson. Wryly observing the horrors and absurdities of domestic life, Home School has all the precision and wit that made The Graduate such a long-lasting success.",
