A New York Times Notable Book
Named a Best Book of the Year by The New Yorker, Washington Post, NPR, Guardian, Esquire, and Bustle
‘Love may not be original, but this funny, fervent novel is.’ —The New Yorker
It’s the summer of 2017 and Kathy is getting married. Meanwhile, fascism is on the rise, truth is dead, the planet is heating up, and Trump is tweeting the world ever closer to nuclear war. In Crudo, her first work of fiction, Olivia Laing radically rewires the novel with a fierce, compassionate account of learning to love when the end of the world seems in sight.
