Such a Fun Age

A page-turning 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. With empathy and piercing social commentary, it explores the stickiness of transactional relationships, what it means to make someone "family", the complicated reality of being a grown up, and the consequences of doing the right thing for the wrong reason. A striking debut novel from an exhilarating new voice.
