Emma Straub, AMERICAN FANTASY: A Novel
About this Event
“American Fantasy has everything we need right now: '90s nostalgia, humor, and it is a great escape.” —Jenna Bush Hager on NBC Today Show
“Vividly conjured and frequently hilarious." —Wall Street Journal
"I can hardly remember the last time I read anything that brought me such pure joy.” —Ann Patchett
When the American Fantasy cruise ship sets sail for a four-day themed voyage, aboard are all five members of a famous, nineties-era boy band and three thousand screaming women who have worshipped them since childhood. In this smart and incisive book packed with laugh-out-loud reflections on fame, aging, and marriage, Emma Straub delivers a richly textured story that shows us real passion is never truly lost, that what we love makes us who we are, and that deep meaning can sometimes be found in a sea of screaming fans.
Emma Straub is a Guggenheim fellow and the New York Times bestselling author of seven books for adults, including This Time Tomorrow, All Adults Here, Modern Lovers and The Vacationers. She and her husband own Books Are Magic, an independent bookstore in Brooklyn, New York.
