Description

NATIONAL BESTSELLERA โ€œdryly wittyโ€ (The New Yorker) and โ€œfabulously revealingโ€ (The New York Times Book Review) debut that follows two sisters-turned-roommates navigating an absurd world on the verge of calamityโ€”a Seinfeldian novel for readers of Ottessa Moshfegh and Sally Rooney.Itโ€™s March of 2019, and twenty-eight-year-old Jules Goldโ€”anxious, artistically frustrated, and internet-obsessedโ€”has been living alone in the apartment she once shared with the man she thought sheโ€™d marry when her younger sister Poppy comes to crash. Indefinitely. Poppy, a year and a half out from a suicide attempt only Jules knows about, searches for work and meaning in Brooklyn while Jules spends her days hate-scrolling the feeds of Mormon mommy bloggers and waiting for life to happen.Then the hives thatโ€™ve plagued Poppy since childhood flare up. Julesโ€™s uterus turns against her. Poppy brings home a maladjusted rescue dog named Amy Klobuchar. The girlsโ€™ mother, a newly devout Messianic Jew, starts falling for the same deep-state conspiracy theories as Julesโ€™s online mommies. Jules, halfheartedly struggling to scrape her way to the source of her ennui, slowly and cruelly comes to blame Poppy for her own insufficiencies as a friend, a writer, and a sister. And Amy Klobuchar might have rabies. As the year shambles on and a new decade looms near, a disastrous trip home to Florida forces Jules and Poppyโ€”comrades, competitors, constant fixtures in each otherโ€™s livesโ€”to ask themselves what they want their futures to look like, and whether theyโ€™ll spend them together or apart.โ€œA tragicomic portrait of urban millennial lifeโ€ (Shelf Awareness), Worry is a โ€œriotously funny and wryly existentialโ€ (Harperโ€™s Bazaar) novel of sisterhood from a nervy new voice in contemporary fiction.
