Description
When Chuck, a disillusioned advertising copywriter, meets Joey, a young barista and aspiring poet, an unexpected connection begins to bridge the gap between their sharply different lives. As Joey imagines the possibility of a shared future and Chuck reckons with a recent turning point, both must confront the stories they tell themselves about ambition, intimacy, and reinvention. Funny, painful, and sharply observant, this contemporary novel captures the uncertainty of being young—or feeling newly unmoored—and the human longing to find meaning and connection in a world that rarely offers easy answers.
