~ Trade Paperback Set against the backdrop of privileged New York City, Rich and Pretty is an irresistible debut that provides a sharp, insightful look into how the relationship be tween two best friends changes when they are no longer coming of age, but instead learning to live adult lives. With impeccable style, biting humour, and a keen sense of detail, Rumaan Alam deftly explores how the attachments we form in childhood shift as we adapt to our adult lives-and how the bonds of friendship endure, even when our paths diverge. "Alam captures something truthful and essential about the push-pull of friendship: the desire for closeness as well as the space to define ourselves." -- Kirkus Reviews Show more
