Description:
Praise for The Startup Wife "Spectacular. . . . a powerful statement on the consequences of public achievement on private happiness." -- Publishers Weekly, starred review "This scathing and brutally funny novel skewers startup culture and workaholism with the perfect story for our precarious moment. Tahmima Anam has written an absolute page-turner full of heart, wit, and insight about obsession, how we treat others, and when we stand up for ourselves. A revealing depiction of ways people gain power through work--and lose it." --V.V. Ganeshananthan, author of Love Marriage "Compulsive reading. A deliciously timely, whip-smart buoyant dissection of men and women on the rise and the dynamics at play." --Irenosen Okojie, author of Butterfly Fish "Beneath its high-octane, hi-tech surface, The Startup Wife is a funny, poignant, and supersmart story of ambition, independence, and love--a brilliant portrait of the times we live in." --Tash Aw, author of Five Star Billionaire "Brilliant . . . A modern novel about love, startups, technology, ambition, and the future, all wrapped up in one. It's very clever, but also subtle and very funny too." --Emma Gannon, author of Olive "Fresh, funny, brave, savage, smart. Tahmima Anam hits every note perfectly in this novel about our new reality and the age-old problems of men and women that no app can fix." --Kamila Shamsie, author of Home Fires "Tahmima Anam deftly uses humor to explore both start up culture and the institution of marriage in an utterly charming but also genuinely thoughtful way. With generosity and sharp intelligence, Anam offers real insight into the collision between romance and ambition, and the tangled relationship between faith and technology." -- Rumaan Alam , author of Leave the World Behind " The Startup Wife is a nuanced and honest portrayal of gender dynamics, misguided intentions and taking responsibility for our own, sometimes monstrous, creations. I've never read such an accurate account of how it feels to start a tech company as a woman. We need more stories like this one." -- Susie Yang , author of White Ivy "Impossibly timely and bewilderlingly smart." --Elif Shafak, author of The Forty Rules of Love "A brilliant and trenchant portrait." -- The Observer " The Startup Wife is an extremely enjoyable, feminist rom com-- gloriously readable, irresistibly funny and smarter than you realize... I loved this novel." -- Gillian Anderson Praise for Tahmima Anam "Anam deftly weaves the personal and the political." -- The New Yorker "Compelling... Anam is cracking open secrets to let the healing begin." -- O, The Oprah Magazine "Anam's easy poetry and soulful writing is illuminating." -- Elle
