ONE OF THE MOST BUZZED ABOUT DEBUTS IN YEARS

AN INTERNATIONAL SENSATION SOLD IN 24 TERRITORIES AND COUNTING

Exploring the psychological dynamics of the relationship between a precocious yet naïve teenage girl and her magnetic and manipulative teacher, a brilliant, all-consuming read that marks the explosive debut of an extraordinary new writer.


2000. Bright, ambitious, and yearning for adulthood, fifteen-year-old Vanessa Wye becomes entangled in an affair with Jacob Strane, her magnetic and guileful forty-two-year-old English teacher.

2017. Amid the rising wave of allegations against powerful men, a reckoning is coming due. Strane has been accused of sexual abuse by a former student, who reaches out to Vanessa, and now Vanessa suddenly finds herself facing an impossible choice: remain silent, firm in the belief that her teenage self willingly engaged in this relationship, or redefine herself and the events of her past. But how can Vanessa reject her first love, the man who fundamentally transformed her and has been a persistent presence in her life? Is it possible that the man she loved as a teenager—and who professed to worship only her—may be far different from what she has always believed?

Alternating between Vanessa’s present and her past, My Dark Vanessa juxtaposes memory and trauma with the breathless excitement of a teenage girl discovering the power her own body can wield. Thought-provoking and impossible to put down, this is a masterful portrayal of troubled adolescence and its repercussions that raises vital questions about agency, consent, complicity, and victimhood. Written with the haunting intimacy of The Girls and the creeping intensity of Room, My Dark Vanessa is an era-defining novel that brilliantly captures and reflects the shifting cultural mores transforming our relationships and society itself.

Includes a bonus conversation with Kate Elizabeth Russell, Grace Gummer, and Jessica Williams (editor of My Dark Vanessa).

This audiobook includes an episode of the Book Club Girl Podcast, featuring an interview with Kate Elizabeth Russell about My Dark Vanessa.

It was a good story and tells the trauma of abuse well. But it was really drawn out and slow at times.

I thought there would be more closure in the end.

Good Story - A bit slow

This story was not unique but the book is.. It's been an experience for so many. The author tells this rich tale with so much conviction of lived experience, whether it was hers on not, it was someone's, a many someone's. There were moments that gripped me so hard I felt sick to muly stomach. I have recommended this to so many young women who've found themselves in this trap as children. It's been healing for me, and so many others.

Trigger warning. You may heal.

This book was amazing. I visualized and felt every word. The narrator was perfect for the story. Even if you haven’t experienced what Vanessa went through you will be able to relate to her story. Read/listen to it, you will not be disappointed!

Best book I have ever listened to

Dark Vanessa is an uncomfortable, challenging listen that takes the listener into the shoes of a woman who was abused as a child and the consequences of the abuse. Grace did an incredible job narrating the character's voices.

TRIGGER WARNING: Sexual abuse, pedophilia, and coercion.

Challenging listen, but highly recommended

I really enjoyed the story. So different from what you read today and so well written.
However, I did not like the narrator at all.
I really struggled to finish this book because of it, it took me 3 months to finish this one, I would recommend this book but not as an Audible.

Great story.
