Description
Thirty years into a seemingly perfect North London marriage, baby boomer Kate and her architect husband Jack believe they share a private language—until a breakout TV series by millennial screenwriter Phoebe, Cheating, seems to echo details of their own life. As Kate grows convinced she’s watching her marriage reframed, the question turns from what Phoebe knows to what she’s taken, and why. In a propulsive black comedy of love, trust, resentment, and entitlement, two women from different generations find themselves locked in an escalating contest over authorship, intimacy, and revenge. With John Lanchester’s sharp, suspenseful wit and keen social observation, the novel explores how stories travel between people—and how betrayal can be both personal and performative.
