From a brilliant new literary talent comes a sweeping comic portrait of privilege, ambition and friendship - dubbed ‘the first great millennial novel’ by New York Magazine.
A brilliant novel – whip smart, hilarious and entirely engrossing Emma Cline, author of The Girls
Tulathimutte is a big talent Jonathan Franzen, author of Purity
An eloquent social novel bristling with logic’ Nell Zink, Financial Times, Best Summer Books of 2016
Tulathimutte is a pervert and a madman and a stone-cold genius’ Carmen Maria Machado, author of In the Dream House
Tulathimutte is utterly inimitable. Raven Leilani, author of Luster
Tulathimutte, undoubtedly one of the foremost fiction writers of his generation, is virtuosic, in the realm of the greats.’ Jia Tolentino, author of Trick Mirror
Capturing the anxious, self-aware mood of young college grads in the noughties, Private Citizens embraces the contradictions of our new century. Call it a gleefully rude comedy of manners, a Middlemarch for Millennials. The novels four whip-smart narrators – idealistic Cory, Internet-lurking Will, awkward Henrik, and vicious Linda – are torn between fixing the world and cannibalizing it. In boisterous prose that ricochets between humour and pain, the four estranged friends stagger through the Bay Areas maze of tech start-ups, protestors, gentrifiers, karaoke bars, house parties and cultish self-help seminars, washing up in each others lives once again.
A wise and searching depiction of a generation grappling with privilege and finding grace in failure, Private Citizens is as expansively intelligent as it is full of heart.
