A Novel

One summer morning, Flight 2977 takes off from Newark headed for Los Angeles. There are 191 passengers aboard: among them a Wall Street wunderkind; a young woman coming to terms with an unexpected pregnancy; an injured vet returning from Afghanistan; a septuagenarian business tycoon battling cancer; a free-spirited woman running away from a controlling husband; and two beleaguered parents moving across the country with their adolescent sons. The younger of these boys, twelve-year-old Edward Adler, becomes the sole survivor after the plane suddenly crashes. Edward's survival captures the attention of the nation, and he becomes a symbol of hope and predestination for solace-seekers everywhere. But for Edward, life after the crash is bewildering. He struggles to make sense of the loss of his family, the strangeness of his sudden fame, and the meaning of his survival. As he moves through adolescence, he yearns to find a place for himself in an existence that no longer feels sure or secure. When he begins to receive letters from people around the world--each of them eager to offer advice, ask a favor, or share how Edward's survival has inspired them--he is forced to confront some of life's most profound questions: How do we make the most of the time we are given? For whom do we reach in our final moments? What does it mean to live a meaningful life? Told in alternating points of view, Dear Edward recounts the stories of the passengers aboard the flight as it hurtles toward its fateful end, and depicts Edward's life in the aftermath of the crash. Sweeping in scope but full of intimate detail, Dear Edward is a deeply moving, heartfelt novel about love, regret, and the human connections that define our lives.

A Best Book of the Year: The Washington Post • Chicago Tribune • NPR • Vogue • Elle • Real Simple • InStyle • Good Housekeeping • Parade • Slate • Vox • Kirkus Reviews • Library Journal • BookPage Longlisted for the 2020 Booker Prize An Instant New York Times Bestseller A Reese's Book Club Pick "The most provocative page-turner of the year." --Entertainment Weekly "I urge you to read Such a Fun Age." --NPR A striking and surprising debut novel from an exhilarating new voice, Such a Fun Age is a page-turning and big-hearted story about race and privilege, set around a young black babysitter, her well-intentioned employer, and a surprising connection that threatens to undo them both. Alix Chamberlain is a woman who gets what she wants and has made a living, with her confidence-driven brand, showing other women how to do the same. So she is shocked when her babysitter, Emira Tucker, is confronted while watching the Chamberlains' toddler one night, walking the aisles of their local high-end supermarket. The store's security guard, seeing a young black woman out late with a white child, accuses Emira of kidnapping two-year-old Briar. A small crowd gathers, a bystander films everything, and Emira is furious and humiliated. Alix resolves to make things right. But Emira herself is aimless, broke, and wary of Alix's desire to help. At twenty-five, she is about to lose her health insurance and has no idea what to do with her life. When the video of Emira unearths someone from Alix's past, both women find themselves on a crash course that will upend everything they think they know about themselves, and each other. With empathy and piercing social commentary, Such a Fun Age explores the stickiness of transactional relationships, what it means to make someone "family," and the complicated reality of being a grown up. It is a searing debut for our times.
