New York Magazine calls Private Citizens "the first great millennial novel."
Emma Cline calls it "brilliant."
From a brilliant new literary talent comes a sweeping comic portrait of privilege, ambition, and friendship in millennial San Francisco. With the social acuity of Adelle Waldman and the murderous wit of Martin Amis, Tony Tulathimuttes Private Citizens is a brainy, irreverent debutThis Side of Paradise for a new era.
Capturing the anxious, self-aware mood of young college grads in the aughts,Private Citizensembraces the contradictions of our new century: call it a loving satire. A gleefully rude comedy of manners. Middlemarchfor Millennials. The novel's four whip-smart narratorsidealistic Cory, Internet-lurking Will, awkward Henrik, and vicious Lindaare torn between fixing the world and cannibalizing it. In boisterous prose that ricochets between humor and pain, the four estranged friendsstagger through the Bay Areas maze of tech startups, 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.
