Who Is Rich?

A Novel

Matthew Klam

Unravel the complexities of love and adultery in a New England fishing village, where a summer arts conference brings together a motley crew of poets, artists, and storytellers. When cartoonist Rich Fischer meets narrative painter Amy O’Donnell at the conference, their passion ignites, leading to an arduous seduction that tests their guilt and longing. As they both slip into adultery, Rich grapples with midlife alienation, erotic pleasure, envy, and bitterness in the midst of a glittering gilded age. But amid the chaos and confusion, deeper questions about family, monogamy, and the joys of parenthood also emerge.

A gem within the canon of infidelity literature. One of the nicest and saddest things about Who Is Rich? is the way that Klam goes all in on the pathos of feeling completely unwanted—a state that has become native to Fischer both professionally and in bed. In the world of Who Is Rich? everything is embarrassing and beautiful.      source
