Australia’s latest it-girl, Lilian, and her struggling actor best friend, Jillian, thrive on clean-girl aesthetics and dreams of stardom. But when cultural zeitgeist icon Unmoi threatens Lilian’s Instagram empire, she finds herself on the brink of cancel culture. With Jillian by her side, it’s them and manifestation versus the world—or so Lilian thinks.werkaholics by Vivian Nguyen is a bold exploration of influencer culture, intersectional feminism, and the unfiltered truths about our evolving relationship with money, whiteness, and liberation in 21st-century capitalism. A hyper-pop interrogation of modern conundrums, it’s an absurdist and comedic take on digital hysteria.
As Lilian and Jillian navigate the ruthless demands of digital fame, mounting debt, and a shifting social landscape, Lilian is forced to decide what matters most: her dreams of fame or her best friend?
