Description
The Emperor's Children by Claire Messud In the early years of the twenty-first century, three young New Yorkers navigate the complexities of their lives and relationships. Danielle, Marina, and Julius have been friends since college, but as they pursue their individual ambitions, their bonds begin to fray. The arrival of Bootie, a cousin from the provinces with a desire to make his mark, forces them to confront their desires and vulnerabilities. The events of September 11th, 2001, forever alter the course of their lives. Messud's poignant and humorous portrayal of these characters offers a raw and honest exploration of how our identities are shaped by the times in which we live.
