A proposito di questo titolo

When Paul enters university in early 1970s Pittsburgh, it’s with the hope of moving past the recent death of his father. Sensitive, insecure and like a stranger to his family, Paul feels isolated and alone. When he meets the worldly Julian in his freshman ethics class, Paul is immediately drawn to his classmate’s effortless charm.

Paul will stop at nothing to prove himself worthy of their friendship. But Julian is as volatile and cruel as he is charismatic, and Paul begins to suspect that he can never live up to what Julian expects of him.

As their friendship spirals into all-consuming intimacy, they each learn the lengths to which the other will go in order to stay together, their obsession ultimately hurtling them toward an act of irrevocable violence. From then on, everything changes …

These Violent Delights is an exquisitely plotted excavation of the depths of human desire and the darkness it can unleash upon us …

Recensioni della critica

'These Violent Delights is an utterly captivating fever dream of a novel whose tone and atmosphere will haunt you long after you finish. More haunting still is the skill with which Micah Nemerever reveals to us the lengths we will go to in order to be known, to be seen, to be understood. A thrilling first novel.' (Brandon Taylor, Booker-shortlisted author of Real Life)
'Nemerever does a crafty job of slowly ratcheting up the tension ... A clever novel of manners.' (New York Times)
'As unsettling as it is enthralling, These Violent Delights will engulf you: first in the intoxication of obsession, then in its toxic consequences. Micah Nemerever's debut is a beautiful portrait of intimacy, desperation, and the damage that damaged hearts can cause. It shattered me.' (Robin Wasserman, author of Girls on Fire and Mother Daughter Widow Wife)
'[An]intense and beautiful thriller.' (Literary Hub)
