She’s messing up in her dead-end admin job in her all-white office. Is sleeping with all the wrong men. And has failed at the only thing that meant anything to her, painting.

Including a wife who has sort-of-agreed to an open marriage, and an adopted black daughter who doesn’t have a single person in her life who can show her how to do her hair. As if navigating the constantly shifting landscape of sexual and racial politics as a young black woman wasn’t already hard enough, with nowhere else left to go, Edie finds herself falling head-first into Eric’s home and family.<br><br><b>Razor-sharp, provocatively page-turning and surprisingly tender, <i>Luster</i> by Raven Leilani is a painfully funny debut about what it means to be young now.</b><br><br><b>A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: <i>Guardian</i>,<i> New York Times</i>, <i>New Yorker</i>, <i>Boston Globe</i>, <i>Literary Hub</i>, <i>Vanity Fair</i>, <i>Los Angeles Times</i>, <i>Glamour</i>, <i>Time</i>, <i>Good Housekeeping</i>, <i>InStyle</i>, NPR, <i>O Magazine, Buzzfeed</i>, <i>Electric Literature</i>, <i>Town & Country</i>, <i>Wired</i>, <i>New Statesman</i>, <i>Vox</i>, <i>Shelf Awareness</i>, <i>i-D</i>,<i> BookPage</i> and more.</b></p>
