The million copy bestseller, A Little Life by Hanya Yanagihara, is an immensely powerful and heartbreaking novel of brotherly love and the limits of human endurance.
When four graduates from a small Massachusetts college move to New York to make their way, they're broke, adrift, and buoyed only by their friendship and ambition. 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cruel Brooklyn-born painter seeking entry to the art world; Malcolm, a frustrated architect at a prominent firm; and withdrawn, brilliant, enigmatic Jude, who serves as their centre of gravity.
Over 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.

A Little Life is a book about art and creativity, aspiration and achievement, family and friendship, and identity and discovery. These four friends are all from starkly different backgrounds, and they navigate their new lives in New York city just as they navigate each other. They talk about films and paintings – and, indeed, create them – and these boys luxuriate in their shared passions and new discoveries. They’re there for each other’s successes, for the everyday, for the low points. It’s a novel about friendship that turns into family.
