Description
Jem Calder's Reward System is a set of ultra-contemporary and electrifyingly fresh fictions about a generation on the cusp, enmeshed in Zooms and lockdowns, loneliness and love.
Audacious fictions for a generation wondering: What now?
Julia has landed a fresh start at an up-and-coming city restaurant.
"Imagine that," says her mother.
"I’m imagining."
Her ex-boyfriend Nick is flirting with sobriety and nobody else. Did you know that adults his age are more likely to live with their parents than with a romantic partner?
Life should have started to take shape by now—but instead we’re trying on new versions of ourselves, swiping left and right, searching for a good answer to the question "What do you do?"
Ce que les critiques en disent
“Reward System is an exhilarating and beautiful book by an extraordinarily gifted writer. Reading these stories, I found myself thinking newly and differently about contemporary life.”—Sally Rooney
“Remarkably fresh . . . Calder's writing achieves that rare thing of capturing how it feels to be young without merely cataloguing millennial clichés.”―Esquire, Best Books of 2022
“Calder is a superb writer, by turns funny, graceful, acidly cynical, lyrical—and always verbally dexterous and inventive. . . he can also write simply and beautifully, with a keen eye for the natural world and human behaviour."―The Guardian (UK)
