Opis: I Want You to Be Happy - Jem Calder

* AVAILABLE WHILE STOCKS LAST - LIMITED FIRST EDITION: featuring an exclusive hidden cover * AN OBSERVER BEST DEBUT NOVELIST OF 2026 `Prepare to see this everywhere.` - Elle `I was totally invested.` - Saba Sams `I was utterly enthralled.` - Leslie Jamison `Jem Calder is my new favourite writer.` - Andrew O`Hagan `Will appeal to Cleopatra And Frankenstein fans, and the setting and themes is reminiscent of Evenings And Weekends.` - Stylist Chuck and Joey meet in a bar. He`s in his mid-thirties, she`s twelve years younger. He`s long abandoned his ambition of becoming a novelist and now works as a copywriter at a big ad agency. `Lead copywriter,` he corrects himself. Joey lives paycheck to paycheck on her barista wages and privately dreams of making it as a poet. They go back to Chuck`s luxury flat-a world away from Joey`s cramped house-share, the crumbs in her bed. Soon, Joey`s imagining a future between them, and Chuck`s moving on from a mistake in his recent past. Amazing, how meeting a new person can make you feel so new. Funny, excruciating, and true, I Want You to Be Happy is a sharp-eyed tale of two people searching for meaning and connection in modern times, missing the mark maybe, but still trying.
