Modern Lovers

Viac o knihe

"Former college friends Elizabeth, Andrew and Zoe have watched one another marry, set up home and start families, all while trying to hold on to the identities of their youth. Now, two decades later, they live within shouting distance in the same Brooklyn neighbourhood and the trappings of the adult world seem to have arrived with ease. But nothing ages them like suddenly having to pass the torch - of sexuality, independence and the ineffable alchemy of cool - to their own teen age offspring, and the summer that their children reach maturity (and start sleeping together), the fabric of the adult lives suddenly begins to unravel. The secrets and revelations that are finally let loose can never be reclaimed. From the author of New York Timesbestseller The Vacationers, Modern Loversis a smart, entertaining novel about what it means to grow up well after adulthood has set in. Praise for Emma Straub"
