Beschreibung

<p><b>"An astonishing debut as mesmerizing as it is unnerving." --Joyce Carol Oates</b><br><b><br>A day-in-the-life debut novel about a fading socialite on the hunt for someone to kill her before her next SoulCycle class.</b><br><br><b>"A tale of suspense, a statement, a cry for help, and a delicious tour-de-force." --Nell Zink</b><br><br>New York City, 2014. Agnes Maurer seeks a willing murderer and wonders what she should wear. Candidates include: an icy magazine editor with a special cutlery set; an eccentric designer from her past; and Agnes's cruel novelist boyfriend. As she Ubers from Upper East Side shopping to Craigslist gun deals, Agnes' desperation becomes an exhibition, a swan song of millennial sexuality as internalized abuse and consummate style, with the knob righty-tightened all the way. <br><br>Newton's prose is disturbingly fun, relentless, shattering. A crafted study of existential despair that culminates in a worthy, intense denouement.</p>
