Note: Cover may not represent actual copy or condition available

Book summary

Barbara Covett, a middle-aged teacher at a private school, befriends the new teacher, Sheba Hart, whose exotic looks, naively open manner, and unprofessional dress are a contrast to Barbara's own drab looks and lonely lifestyle. When Sheba begins an affair with a 15-year-old student, Barbara becomes Sheba's confidant, but her own motives are far from innocent. A New York Times Notable Book for 2003, WHAT WAS SHE THINKING was made into the 2006 film NOTES ON SCANDAL starring Judi Dench and Cate Blanchett.

Media reviews

"Unbelievable yet compelling: it's almost as if Heller tried for a salacious potboiler and ended up--her talent refusing not to intrude--with a portrait that remains indelible."
