A proposito di questo titolo

Brought to you by Penguin.

The Silent Patient meets The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo in this elegant and twisty debut thriller.

When does the acting stop - and the deception begin?

Famous film star Lila Crayne is America's Sweetheart: she's generous and kind, gorgeous and magnetic. A golden girl. She and her fiancé, visionary filmmaker Kurt Royall, have settled into a stunning New York apartment, and are embarking on a new movie: a modern feminist adaptation of a classic twentieth-century novel.

To prepare for the leading role, Lila begins work with charming and accomplished therapist Jonah Gabriel to dig into the trauma of her past. Soon, Lila's impeccably manicured life begins to unravel on the therapy couch - and Jonah is just the man to pick up the pieces. But everyone has a secret, no one is quite who they seem, and before long, careers, reputations and lives are in danger of being irrevocably destroyed . . .

'A breathlessly fun, dark, and twisty tale of feminist revenge' --Lisa Genova, author of Still Alice

'Twisty and immersive, it seduces you into a story so compelling that you aren't ready for the sucker-punch of its deeper truths. This is a hell of a debut' --Rebecca Makkai, author of I Have Some Questions For You

'A sharp, seductive thriller that probes the dark underbelly of Hollywood' --Jean Kwok, author of The Leftover Woman

Recensioni della critica

Nothing is what it appears in this brooding story of revenge wrapped up in a homage to Fitzgerald
The stage is set for an intoxicating game of revenge. With themes of misogyny and toxicity, this is a beguiling slow burn
A breathlessly fun, dark, and twisty tale of feminist revenge
Sweet Fury is cunningly ambitious, and rises to all its own challenges: twisty and immersive, it seduces you into a story so compelling that you aren't ready for the sucker-punch of its deeper truths. This is a hell of a debut
Wildly imaginative, very dark . . . filled with surprises, unpredictable in its denouement, this audacious first novel is a subversive and highly entertaining exploration of the theme of ‘romance’ itself
With her powerful, sensuous prose, Sash Bischoff electrifies in her stunning debut novel. The story sweeps us into the intoxicating world of movies and magic, seduction and betrayal, exploring how we construct our own histories, and how fragile our realities really are. Sweet Fury is the book you’ve been waiting to read, the one that will make you fall in love and keep you guessing right up until the final pages. The novel asks if we can ever truly know each other, and how love can destroy as much as it creates. Like a fist inside a velvet glove, Sweet Fury delivers a tender punch.
With its audacious, shape-shifting plot and dazzling characters, Sweet Fury is an irresistible novel, always one step ahead of the reader. I love what it reveals about contemporary mores, about our love of cinema and the way we still too often judge women as either heroines or victims. A gorgeous debut.
A whirlwind of a debut, Sweet Fury is arch yet artful—an ecstatic, ekphrastic, high/low re-examination of F. Scott Fitzgerald's darkest romance, set in the roaring 2020s.
A beguiling tale of abuse and ambition . . . Bischoff reveals one surprising secret after another, all the way until the bombshell final twist. It’s an inspired first outing
Sweet Fury is a gorgeous literary thriller, filled with a cast of glamorous and tragic characters that feel like they might just have stepped out of a modern-day F. Scott Fitzgerald novel. I absolutely devoured this smart, sensual, and twisty story of revenge
