Beschreibung

<b>A REESE’S BOOK CLUB PICK • Longlisted for the Massachusetts Book Award<br><br>“An effervescent debut chock full of Austenian nods. Swoonworthy!” —Sarah McCoy, <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of <i>Mustique Island</i><br> <br><i>“All That Life Can Afford</i> is about love, ambition, and the cost of belonging, and I cannot stop thinking about it.” —Reese Witherspoon <br> <br>A young American woman navigates class, lies, and love amid London’s jet-set elite.</b><br><br><i>I would arrive, blank like a sheet of notebook paper, and write myself new.</i><br><br>Anna first fell in love with London at her hometown library—its Jane Austen balls a far cry from her life of food stamps and hand-me-downs. But when she finally arrives after college, the real London is a moldy flat and the same paycheck-to-paycheck grind—that fairy-tale life still out of reach.<br><br>Then Anna meets the Wilders, who fly her to Saint-Tropez to tutor their teenage daughter. Swept up by the sphinxlike elder sister, Anna soon finds herself plunged into a heady whirlpool of parties and excess, a place where confidence is a birthright. There she meets two handsome young men—one who wants to whisk her into his world in a chauffeured car, the other who sees through Anna’s struggle to outrun her past. It’s like she’s stepped into the pages of a glittering new novel, but what will it cost her to play the part?<br><br>Sparkling with intelligence and insight, <i>All That Life Can Afford</i> peels back the glossy layers of class and privilege, exploring what it means to create a new life for yourself that still honors the one you’ve left behind.
