One of the most devastating and unforgettable novels of the twenty-first century — Hanya Yanagihara's modern classic and a finalist for both the Booker Prize and the National Book Award.
Four college friends move to New York City to make their way: kind, ambitious Willem; sharp-tongued artist JB; gentle architect Malcolm; and brilliant, secretive Jude. Over the decades that follow, their friendships deepen and fray — but it is Jude who slowly becomes the centre of their lives, a gifted litigator haunted by a childhood of trauma he will never fully reveal, and damage that love alone may not be able to mend.
Tender and harrowing in equal measure, A Little Life is an unflinching meditation on friendship, suffering and the limits of human kindness. Please note it deals frankly with abuse, self-harm and trauma — and it will break your heart.
For readers of Donna Tartt's The Secret History and Garth Greenwell — literary fiction that stays with you for the rest of your life.
