NAMED A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR BY NPR, HARPER'S BAZAAR, VOGUE, THE SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICE, THE IRISH TIMES, NEW REPUBLIC AND KIRKUS REVIEWS

The New York Timesbestselling, National Book Awardwinning author of The Friend and What Are You Going Through brings her singular voice to a story about modern life and connection

?I am committed, until one of us dies, to Nunez's novels. I find them ideal. They are short, wise, provocative, funny good and strong company.? Dwight Garner, The New York Times

?With the intimacy and humor of a great conversation, this novel makes you feel smarter and more alive.? People Magazine

?An ode to our basic need to connect with other beings, be they human or animal, even in a global crisis that told us to stay apart.? NPR


Elegy plus comedy is the only way to express how we live in the world today, says a character in Sigrid Nunez's ninth novel. The Vulnerables offers a meditation on our contemporary era, as a solitary female narrator asks what it means to be alive at this complex moment in history and considers how our present reality affects the way a person looks back on her past.

Humor, to be sure, is a priceless refuge. Equally vital is connection with others, who here include an adrift member of Gen Z and a spirited parrot named Eureka. The Vulnerables reveals what happens when strangers are willing to open their hearts to each other and how far even small acts of caring can go to ease another's distress. A search for understanding about some of the most critical matters of our time, Nunez's new novel is also an inquiry into the nature and purpose of writing itself.
