The author of the Booker-shortlisted Real Life returns with a deeply involving new novel of young men and women at a crossroads
In a university town, a circle of young men and women - Seamus, Fyodor, Ivan, Noah and Fatima - 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, the friends 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?
