Trust and Safety

內容簡介

內容簡介 "Distressingly smart, wickedly sly, and side-clutchingly hilarious." --Vanessa Chan, author of The Storm We Made "If you want a book that perfectly evokes millennial sexual politics under late-stage capitalism, and in which all of us--gay, straight, cis, and trans alike--are read for absolute filth, then look no further than Trust and Safety." --Rafael Frumkin, author of Confidence and Bugsy A wry yet tenderhearted novel about a couple who attempt to buy their way into a "wild and precious" existence in the Hudson Valley, where they quickly become entangled with a queer couple living the dream analog life Newlywed Rosie has grown disenchanted with NYC. Inspired by Instagram ads, she starts thirsting for a rural life upstate--one full of beauty and authenticity. She just needs to convince her tech-bro husband, Jordan, of her vision for the future. Willing to do anything for Rosie's happiness, Jordan signs on, and they offer--well above asking price--on a beautiful, historic fixer-upper in the Hudson Valley. But when Jordan suddenly loses his job, the couple is forced to rent out the property's dilapidated outbuilding. There's no heat, it's overrun with mold, and nothing works. Enter Dylan and Lark: an incredibly attractive and handy queer couple who offer to rent the outbuilding and help Rosie and Jordan with repairs. They also happen to be living the life Rosie had envisioned for herself: hand-built furniture, herbal tinctures, guinea hens, and hand-dyed linens. Rosie grows increasingly infatuated with their new tenants, especially with model-esque, charismatic Dylan--to Jordan's increasing distress. Whip-smart and wickedly funny, Trust and Safety examines questions of authenticity, betrayal, belonging, and entitlement, while poking fun at contemporary fear of the "gay agenda."
