'Crushing...intensely vital' Observer 'It's impossible to tear yourself away' The Times 'Such brilliant writing about female desire...honest and visceral' Marian Keyes She's twenty-three and in love with love.

This "blistering anti-romance" (Catherine Lacey) paints a riveting, cathartic story about love addiction and what it does to us. Wouldn’t I do anything to reverse my loss, the absence of him? In the first scene of this provocative gut-punch of a novel, our unnamed narrator meets a magnetic writer named Ciaran and falls, against her better judgment, completely in his power. After a brief, all-consuming romance he abruptly rejects her, sending her into a tailspin of jealous obsession and longing. If he ever comes back to her, she resolves to hang onto him and his love at all costs, even if it destroys her… Part breathless confession, part lucid critique, Acts of Desperation renders a consciousness split between rebellion and submission, between escaping degradation and eroticizing it, between loving and being lovable. With unsettling, electric precision, Nolan dissects one of life’s most elusive mysteries: Why do we want what we want, and how do we want it? Heralding the arrival of a stunning new literary talent, Acts of Desperation interrogates the nature of fantasy, desire, and power, challenging us to reckon honestly with our own insatiability. "Hot as viscera." —The New Republic

The critically acclaimed author of The Rib King returns with an eagerly anticipated collection of interlocking short stories including the title story written exclusively for this volume, that explore relationships between friends, family and strangers in a Black neighborhood over fifteen years The thirteen gripping tales In The Last Suspicious Holdout, the new story collection by award-winning author Ladee Hubbard, deftly chronicle poignant moments in the lives of an African American community located in a “sliver of southern suburbia.” Spanning from 1992 to 2007, the stories represent a period during which the Black middle-class expanded while stories of "welfare Queens," "crack babies," and "super predators" abounded in the media. In “False Cognates,” a formerly incarcerated attorney struggles with raising the tuition to keep his troubled son in an elite private school. In “There He Go,” a young girl whose mother moves constantly clings to a picture of the grandfather she doesn’t know but invents stories of his greatness. Characters spotlighted in one story reappear in another, providing a stunning testament to the enduring resilience of Black people as they navigate the “post-racial” period The Last Suspicious Holdout so vividly portrays.

What makes this story more unique than another. Is that this heart-wrenching story is one, that has to be fictionalized for it to be told. For one, to able to rationalize the desperation. That one might have to endure over wanting just to survive. Having to have to deal with endless hardships, and despair being forced upon them. This is such a story. It tells of a young boy from the early age of ten, and even earlier. The into his teenage years who had to relentlessly struggle through, due to no fault of his own. Where he lost his battle. Trying to finally find peace from his anguish. That he was tormented with. During the short life that he lived. Where prior to his untimely death. Where after he finally found some happiness. When he was befriended by two, women. Who tried to help him escape the endless excruciating suffering that was unscrupulously tormenting him. Only for him to horrifically have to endure being tormented by being plagued with the anxieties of having to face another crisis. Having to carry his relentless curse into death itself. As emotionally traumatic as this story might be. It doesn't leave out the gruesome aftermath that followed those who survived the tragic ordeal. This story might not be as uncommon as one, might think. Where even today one, might look back, and recall moments in their life. That they felt very fortunate to be alive today. To be able to recall where it was equally as heart-wrenching on them or someone they knew. As the one they are about to read about.
