Description
When four college graduates move to New York to make their way, they’re broke, adrift, and buoyed only by their friendship and ambition. There is kind, handsome Willem; JB, a quick-witted painter seeking entry to the art world; Malcolm, a frustrated architect; and brilliant, enigmatic Jude. Over the decades, their relationships deepen, tinged by addiction, success, and pride. Yet their greatest challenge, each comes to realize, is Jude himself, by midlife a talented and successful lawyer yet an increasingly broken man, haunted by a degree of childhood trauma that he fears he will not only be unable to overcome – but that will define his life forever (inside cover).
