"The perfect book to read with your friends." -Bustle "The debut
novel of the season, The Other's Gold reads like an origin story
for the women of Big Little Lies." -Elle An insightful and
sparkling novel that opens on a college campus and follows the
friendship of four women across life-defining turning points
Assigned to the same suite during their freshman year at
Quincy-Hawthorn College, Lainey, Ji Sun, Alice, and Margaret
quickly become inseparable. The leafy green campus they move
through together, the idyllic window seat they share in their
suite, and the passion and ferocity that school and independence
awakens in them ignites an all-encompassing love with one another.
But they soon find their bonds--forged in joy, and fused by
fear--must weather threats that originate from beyond the dark
forests of their childhoods, and come at them from institutions,
from one another, and ultimately, from within themselves. The
Other's Gold follows the four friends as each makes a terrible
mistake, moving from their wild college days to their more feral
days as new parents. With one part devoted to each mistake--the
Accident, the Accusation, the Kiss, and the Bite--this complex yet
compulsively readable debut interrogates the way that growing up
forces our friendships to evolve as the women discover what they
and their loved ones are capable of, and capable of forgiving. A
joyful, big-hearted book that perfectly evokes the bittersweet
experience of falling in love with friendship, the experiences of
Lainey, Ji Sun, Alice, and Margaret are at once achingly familiar
and yet shine with a brilliance and depth all their own.
