The searing debut novel about a young woman's destructive relationship with a legendary writer for readers of My Dark Vanessa and Green Dot

I made up my mind to meet you. Your book had cast a spell over me the previous night. What better way to stay spellbound than to orbit the magician?

When a reporter's call disrupts Tatum Vega's life with her partner in sun-drenched Chile, she is suddenly pulled back into the years she spent in New York, captivated by the famous writer M. Domķnguez.

As long-buried questions resurface, Tatum must reckon with the all-consuming relationship that dominated her early adulthood and prise the story of her life from the hands of her once-hero.

Recenzijos

'Deeply felt and achingly intimate, I couldnt put it down. I feel like it scoured something deep inside of me' - Annie Lord, author of Notes on Heartbreak

'An epic unraveling of every love story trope, reclaimed as something sharp, seething, unsettling, and true. Yes, this has page flipping plot momentum, but its also a whip smart critique of race in America, art making in the age of neoliberal feminism, and the crushing humor of trying to exist as a quiet person with big wants' - T Kira Madden, author of Long Live the Tribe of Fatherless Girls

'Seamlessly alternating between these two timelines, Villarreal-Moura writes with stunning emotional clarity about sexual identity, art and marginalization, and the ways control can masquerade as love' - Bustle, Best New Books 2024

'A beautiful work of fiction that dwells in the gray areas between celebrity and fan, victim and victimizer, absolution and blame' - NPR

'Like Happiness is a deft and touching coming of age story that resists easy answers to very thorny questions-about sexual consent and power, about fame and persona, about making and loving art' - Rumaan Alam, bestselling author of Leave the World Behind
