A Little Life
Hanya Yanagihara
This powerful novel follows four college friends as they navigate their way through New York in search of fame and fortune. Tinged by addiction, success, and pride, their relationships deepen over the decades, held together by their devotion to the troubled and enigmatic Jude. A beautiful hymn to brotherhood and a masterful depiction of love in the modern world, A Little Life explores the families we are born into and those we create for ourselves.

@rhondakap @kellymcgonigal If you haven't read this only read it if you want to be emotionally brutalized. Virtuoso portrayal of compassion but Jesus you could not make worse things happen to your characters. Almost sadistic. Amazing book but traumatic read – source2020-03-10T01:15:05.000Z
This is how I know I’ve read a GREAT BOOK... Weeks later, I’m just daydreaming, as I do, and I think I miss somebody, who is it? Oh, I miss Jude.... Then I realize Jude was a character in a book. An amazing book called #ALittleLife by #HanyaYanagihara and I miss him. – sourceThe greatest work of fiction I’ve ever read, with the simplest theme: All of us come with baggage and wounds and pain; all of us. – source
