Publisher's noteFormer flight attendant Jiselle Dorn's idyllic family life as the wife of pilot Mark Dorn and the mother of two soon grows wearisome, since Mark is always away and her children are hostile, but nothing can prepare her for the threat of the Phoenix Flu, which endangers the very lives they have all imagined. Original. 35,000 first printing. Former flight attendant Jiselle Dorn's idyllic family life as the wife of pilot Mark Dorn and the mother of two soon grows wearisome, since Mark is always away and her children are hostile, but nothing can prepare her for the threat of the Phoenix Flu, which endangers the very lives they have all imagined. Original. 35,000 first printing. AnnotationLaura Kasischke spices domestic melodrama with a hint of Armageddon in this captivating novel. As if Jiselle did not have enough problems trying to handle three combative stepdaughters while her flyboy husband jets around the world, now she has to deal with a pandemic of Phoenix flu which is threatening to eviscerate humanity from the planet. After a quarantine seals America's borders and leaves the four females on their own in a hostile, pre-apocalyptic Midwest, they are forced to call a tentative truce to their personal disputes and concentrate on surviving amidst the dwindling necessities and increasing panic brought on by the plague. "The Pilot's Wife" meets "The Road" in critically-acclaimed poet Kasischke's new novel of marriage, motherhood, and the choices people make when they feel they have no choices left.
