Forlagsbeskrivelse af Misrecognition af Madison Newbound

A smart, savage and hilarious debut exploring love, sexuality, purpose "“ and the delicious absurdities of online life "˜For fans of Patricia Lockwood and Alexandra Tanner "¦ A tale of internet longing and obsession that leads to self-discovery"™ OurCulture "˜Fresh and bold. I was mesmerised"™ Julia May Jonas "˜A brave and blazingly smart debut"™ Garth Greenwell Elsa is struggling. The relationship that has consumed her twenties is over and now she"™s working as a hostess in the small town where she grew up. Her one outlet is the internet: and she"™s soon racking up hours of screentime in her childhood bedroom, falling down rabbit holes that promise a brighter, tidier, better future. There"™s one particular object of her obsession: an up-and-coming actor who starts to occupy her every thought. When the actor arrives in Elsa"™s hometown, she finds her virtual and actual realities colliding. But as Elsa vies to infiltrate the young man"™s circle, she finds a new and very real connection forming with one of his queer friends, forcing her to rethink her own identity and desires. "˜Casts a spell in coolly detached prose, plunging us into the membrane between the social and the parasocial. I was blown away"™ Antoine Wilson "˜Enthralling, astonishingly assured "¦ At once familiar and estranging"™ Sarah Blakley-Cartwright
