Eine Erkundung der Liebe in Zeiten der Künstlichkeit – »Catherine Lacey spielt in ihrer eigenen Liga.« The New York Times. In hypnotischen Sätzen zieht uns Catherine Laceys Roman hinein in das Girlfriend-Experiment, ins Leben gerufen von Kurt Sky, einem so berühmten wie exzentrischen Schauspieler. Die Geschichte um Kurt und die als »emotionale Freundin« angestellte Mary Parson zeigt uns eine artifizielle, doch allzu reale Welt und hinterfragt spielerisch die Konventionen, die unsere intimsten Momente bestimmen. Laceys Antworten auf diese Fragen sind höchst beunruhigend. »Das ›must read‹ des Jahres. So analytisch wie menschlich, empathisch und entlarvend. Wie Don DeLillo für Millenials.« Vogue
