There is kind, handsome Willem, an aspiring actor; JB, a quick-witted, sometimes cruel Brooklyn-born painter seeking entry to the art world; Malcolm, a frustrated architect at a prominent firm; and withdrawn, brilliant, enigmatic Jude, who serves as their center of gravity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOver the decades, their relationships deepen and darken, tinged by addiction, success, and pride. Yet their greatest challenge, each comes to realize, is Jude himself, by midlife a terrifyingly talented litigator yet an increasingly broken man, his mind and body scarred by an unspeakable childhood, and haunted by what he fears is a degree of trauma that he'll not only be unable to overcome-but that will define his life forever.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIn rich and resplendent prose, Yanagihara has fashioned a tragic and transcendent hymn to brotherly love, a masterful depiction of heartbreak, and a dark examination of the tyranny of memory and the limits of human endurance.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hanya Yanagihara","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57936247062911,"sku":"9780804172707","price":17.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0948\/4343\/7439\/files\/09518319_a-little-life.jpg?v=1783581688","url":"https:\/\/bookaholicsshop.com\/products\/a-little-life","provider":"Bookaholics","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
