Everything's fine, by Cecilia Rabess. He's white, rich, works in finance, has rich friends, votes for Trump. She's black, very smart, is doing ok but her career doesn't fly, has rich friends, mostly white. The book tells their story and it's all in the present tense, giving a feel of inevitability to it all. The story of how you can end up being in a relationship with someone who has very different views to yours. A story that is left incomplete, because how long can you go on telling yourself that Everything's Fine?
As someone who's being slowly finding herself, life's much better on the other side @bookstodon#CeciliaRabess#EverythingsFine#bookclub#books@kiarazard#bookwyrm@thestorygraph
