โ[A] striking debut. . . funny, heartbreaking, and real.โโโSAM LANSKY, author of Broken People
ย ย ย ย ย
Prep meets The Secret History in this searing debut novel about a tragic scandal at an American prep school, told in the form of a literary investigation through a distinctly millennial lens
ย ย ย ย ย
When Foster Dade arrives at Kennedy, an elite boarding school in New Jersey, the year is 2008. Barack Obama begins his first term as president; Vampire Weekend and Passion Pit bump from the newly debuted iPhone; teenagers share confidences and rumors over BlackBerry Messenger and iChat; and the internet as we know it is slowly emerging from its cocoon. So, too, is Foster emergingโaย transfer student and anxious young man, Foster is stumbling through adolescence in the wake of his parentsโ scandalous divorce. But Foster soon finds himself in the company of Annabeth Whittaker and Jack Albright, the twin centers of Kennedyโs social gravity, who take him under their wing to navigate the cliques and politics of the carelessly entitled.
ย ย ย ย ย
Eighteen months later, Foster will be expelled, following a tragic scandal that leaves Kennedy and its students irreparably changed. When our nameless narrator inherits Fosterโs old dorm room, he begins an epic yearslong investigation into what exactly happened. Through interviews with former classmates, Fosterโs blog posts, playlists, and text archives, and the narratorโs own obsessive imagination, a story unfurlsโFosterโs, yes, but also one that asks us who owns our personal narratives, and how we shape ourselves to be the heroes or villains of our own stories.
ย ย ย ย
Foster Dade Explores the Cosmos is about privilege and power, the pitfalls of masculinity and its expectations, and, most distinctly, how we create the mythologies that give meaning to our lives. With his debut novel, Nash Jenkins brilliantly captures the emotional intensities of adolescence in the dizzying early years of the twenty-first century.
