Sinopse
"Madeleine Gray takes a scalpel to millennial malaise, office romance, and infidelity, and the result is a brainy, gutsy, nervy—and hilarious—wonder of a novel."—Meg Howrey, author of They're Going to Love You
"Simon’s sarcastic delivery captures the emotions of a heroine with the desire to be powerful in a world in which she is powerless. Simon’s narration wavers between the overconfidence of youth and the insecurity of someone who knows she’s in the wrong. This is a perfect audiobook for fans of the show Fleabag."—AudioFile on Green Dot
An irresistible and messy love story about the terrible allure of wanting something that promises nothing
At twenty-four, Hera is a clump of unmet potential. To her, the future is nothing but an exhausting thought exercise, one depressing hypothetical after another. She’s sharp in more ways than one, adrift in her own smug malaise, until her new job moderating the comments section of an online news outlet—a role even more mind-numbing than it sounds—introduces her to Arthur, a middle-aged journalist. Though she's preferred women to men for years now, she soon finds herself falling into an all-consuming affair with him. She is coming apart with want and loving every second of it! Well, except for the tiny hiccup that Arthur has a wife—and that she has no idea Hera exists.
With its daringly specific and intimate voice, Green Dot is a darkly hilarious and deeply felt examination of the joys and indignities of coming into adulthood against the pitfalls of the twenty-first century and the winding, tortuous, and often very funny journey we take in deciding who we are and who we want to be.
A Macmillan Audio production from Henry Holt & Company.
Resumo da Crítica
Named a Most Anticipated Book of 2024 by Debutiful
“By the time Hera finds out that Arthur is married, it’s already too late—she’s enamored. Gray’s writing skillfully captures the passion of their early trysts. The sex scenes crackle with energy, and the chemistry between Hera and Arthur is believable and seductive. . . A breezy, heartfelt coming-of-age story for Gen Zers concerned with how to grow up without growing cold.”—Kirkus Reviews
“Hera is vibrantly written, and Gray thankfully provides her narration with enough distance for self-clarity. . . . Gray’s unflinching bildungsroman is great fun.”—Publishers Weekly
“This book! What a gutting, funny, smart, smart, smart book it is, one that I absolutely inhaled while almost constantly emotionally bracing myself. Madeleine Gray is a hilarious, humane, and highly perceptive writer.”—Claire Lombardo, New York Times bestselling author of The Most Fun We Ever Had
