Description
Blisteringly funny and brimming with caustic charm, Joe Dunthorne's The Adulterants is a joyous diagnosis of our modern ills that will leave you laughing out loud even when it breaks your heart. This tragicomedy follows Ray, a man struggling to come to terms with his life in his thirties. Ray's career as a freelance tech journalist may be dismal, but he dreams of making a difference one day. However, his special talent is for making things worse. With lacerating wit and wry affection, Dunthorne dissects the urban millennial psyche of a man too old to be an actual millennial. This humorous new tragicomedy is a relatable exploration of millennial angst, pre-midlife crises, and the human condition.
