The Rich People Have Gone Away
Details
Ordinary New Yorkers are brought together in a story of betrayal, race, what connects us to each other - and what sets us apart A ROXANE GAY BOOK CLUB 2024 SELECTION ''A marvel... A masterpiece'' PAUL HARDING ''Prescient and profound'' BRYAN WASHINGTON Brooklyn, 2020. Theo Harper and his blonde, blue-eyed, pregnant wife Darla head upstate to their summer cottage to wait out the lockdown. Not everyone in their fancy apartment building has this privilege: not Xavier, the restless teenager in the Cardi B t-shirt, nor Darla''s black best friend Ruby and her partner Katsumi, who stay behind to save their restaurant. During an upstate hike, Theo lets slip a long-held secret about his mixed-up ancestry - and when Darla disappears after the ensuing argument, he suddenly finds himself the prime suspect at the centre of a front-page police search for the perfect missing woman.
