The author of the Booker-shortlisted Real Life returns with a deeply involving new novel of young men and women at a crossroads
‘Funny, merciless, brilliant . . . I loved it’ CURTIS SITTENFELD
Seamus, Fyodor, Ivan, Noah and Fatima are running out of time to decide on their futures, in the new novel from the Booker-shortlisted author of Real Life.
In a university town, a circle of lovers and friends navigate tangled webs of connection while they try to work out what they want, and who they are.
As they test their own desires in a series of relationships, these young men and women ask themselves and each other: what is the right thing to stake a life on? Work, love, money, dance, poetry? And what does true connection look like, in an age of precarity?
