Sam Lipsyte, New York Times bestselling author of The Ask and No One Left to Come Looking for YouDemetri and his sister, Ava. Ava and her brother, Demetri. As fiercely competitive as they are co-dependent, the two have long been locked in an emotionally charged relationship. Ava, defiant and impassioned, grew up in the shadow of soft, charming, and intellectual Demetri. But in the aftershocks of familial trauma, it is Demetri who finds himself emotionally ruined, whereas Ava has no time nor patience for grief. As they grow up, following one another from city to city, the siblings are set on their own parallel paths as artists, thinkers, and lovers. Ava throws herself into her obsession with her art, which gradually leads to fame and financial stability as well as extreme existential insecurity. But Demetri flounders in his own work, unable to escape the wake of tragedy; until, that is, he decides to make Ava his subject.When Nati, an Italian gallery owner, arrives in New York, Demetri and Ava orbit her, possessed by their own priorities.
