The American writer Hanya Yanagihara has created an unusual novel where both the terrible and the joyful are spoken of without excessive anguish and sentimentality. Four friends - talented architect Malcolm, aspiring actor Willem, confident in his uniqueness artist JB, and brilliant lawyer and mathematician Jude - try to achieve success in New York, but it turns out that neither career, nor money, nor fame can cope with the past, if it is stronger than life...

The book contains profanity.
