Book excerpt: A Best Book of the Year: The Washington Post • Chicago Tribune • NPR • Vogue • Elle • Real Simple • InStyle • Good Housekeeping • Parade • Slate • Vox • Kirkus Reviews • Library Journal • BookPage Longlisted for the 2020 Booker Prize An Instant New York Times Bestseller A Reese's Book Club Pick "The most provocative page-turner of the year." --Entertainment Weekly "I urge you to read Such a Fun Age." --NPR A striking and surprising debut novel from an exhilarating new voice, Such a Fun Age is a page-turning and big-hearted story about race and privilege, set around a young black babysitter, her well-intentioned employer, and a surprising connection that threatens to undo them both. Alix Chamberlain is a woman who gets what she wants and has made a living, with her confidence-driven brand, showing other women how to do the same. So she is shocked when her babysitter, Emira Tucker, is confronted while watching the Chamberlains' toddler one night, walking the aisles of their local high-end supermarket. The store's security guard, seeing a young black woman out late with a white child, accuses Emira of kidnapping two-year-old Briar. A small crowd gathers, a bystander films everything, and Emira is furious and humiliated. Alix resolves to make things right. But Emira herself is aimless, broke, and wary of Alix's desire to help. At twenty-five, she is about to lose her health insurance and has no idea what to do with her life. When the video of Emira unearths someone from Alix's past, both women find themselves on a crash course that will upend everything they think they know about themselves, and each other. With empathy and piercing social commentary, Such a Fun Age explores the stickiness of transactional relationships, what it means to make someone "family," and the complicated reality of being a grown up. It is a searing debut for our times.

Book excerpt: »Eine extrem komische, unbequeme und unbedingt lesenswerte Geschichte über Rassismus und Klassenunterschiede.« TIME Nominiert für den Booker Prize Alix Chamberlain ist eine Frau, die bekommt, was sie will, und die ihr Geld damit verdient, anderen Frauen genau das beizubringen. Als ihrer Babysitterin Emira Kidnapping vorgeworfen wird, weil sie sich kurz vor Mitternacht mit Alix' weißer Tochter in einem Supermarkt aufhält, ist Alix schockiert und will den Vorfall wiedergutmachen. Doch Emira hat andere Sorgen: Kurz vor ihrem fünfundzwanzigsten Geburtstag hat sie immer noch keinen richtigen Job, sie ist ständig pleite und misstrauisch gegenüber Alix' Wunsch zu helfen. Je verzweifelter Alix Emira zu einem Teil ihrer Familie machen will, desto mehr verrennt sie sich. Dann geht ein Video online und stellt alles in Frage, was sie zu wissen glaubten: über sich selbst, einander, und die komplexe Dynamik von Privilegien. »Reid erkundet das weiße Gewissen in Zeiten von Black Lives Matter und erzählt vom Scheitern guter Absichten.« The New Yorker »Ein messerscharfes Debüt über Armut, Privilegien und Rassismus.« The Guardian

Download or read book A Great Country written by Shilpi Somaya Gowda and published by Doubleday Canada. This book was released on 2024-03-26 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the New York Times bestselling author, a novel in the tradition of Celeste Ng's Little Fires Everywhere, exploring the ties and fractures of a close-knit Indian-American family in the aftermath of a violent encounter with the police. Pacific Hills, California: Gated communities, ocean views, well-tended lawns, serene pools, and now the new home of the Shah family. For the Shah parents, who came to America twenty years earlier with little more than an education and their new marriage, this move represents the culmination of years of hard work and dreaming. For their children, born and raised in America, success is not so simple. For the most part, these differences among the five members of the Shah family are minor irritants, arguments between parents and children, older and younger siblings. But one Saturday night, the twelve-year-old son is arrested. The fallout from that event will shake each family member's perception of themselves as individuals, as community members, as Americans, and will lead each to consider: how do we define success? At what cost comes ambition? And what is our role and responsibility in the cultural mosaic of modern America? For readers of The Vanishing Half by Brit Bennett and Such a Fun Age by Kiley Reid, A Great Country explores themes of immigration, generational conflict, social class and privilege as it reconsiders the myth of the model minority and questions the price of the American dream.

GUARDIAN 'Razor-sharp ... Packs a huge emotional punch' DAILY MAIL Everything comes at a price. But not everything can be paid for... Millie wants to graduate, get a job and buy a house. She's slowly saving up from her job on campus, but when a visiting professor offers her an unusual opportunity to make some extra money, she jumps at the chance. Agatha is a writer, recovering from a break-up while researching attitudes towards weddings and money for her new book. She strikes gold when interviewing the girls in Millie's dorm, but her plans take a turn when she realises that the best material is unfolding behind closed doors. As the two women form an unlikely relationship, they soon become embroiled in a world of roommate theatrics, vengeful pranks and illicit intrigue – and are forced to question just how much of themselves they are willing to trade to get what they want.
