Kuhusu kitabu pepe hiki
An insightful and drolly satirical novel about contemporary romance--"the kind of book Jane Austen would've written had she been male and hipper."
-Chicago Tribune
Look out for Nick Laird's new novel, Modern Gods, coming in June 2017
With his debut novel, Utterly Monkey, Nick Laird won acclaim on both sides of the Atlantic for his deft humor and sharp-eyed powers of observation. In this new novel, disaffected thirty-something college teacher David introduces his former teacher, American artist Ruth Marks, to his friend and flatmate James Glover, unwittingly setting in place a love triangle loaded with tension, guilt, and heartbreak. Set in the London art scene awash with new money and intellectual pretension, Nick Laird's insightful and drolly satirical novel explores the nature of contemporary romance among damaged souls whose hearts and heads never quite line up long enough for them to achieve true happiness.
