Produktbeschreibung

ONE OF GAL-DEM'S UNMISSABLE BOOKS OF 2023

From the high-rises of Canary Wharf to the turquoise pools of Miami, Sugar, Baby is an intoxicating, darkly funny debut novel about beauty and greed, desire and delusion, from an extraordinary new voice in fiction.

'I can show you how to make a career out of lunches and champagne.
Trust me, Agnes.
Being irresistible is easy when you know how.'

Agnes Green is turning 21 and her life is heading nowhere. Still living at home with her devoutly religious mother in a lifeless suburb, she works as a cleaner by day and spends her nights secretly going to clubs and dating Toby - who loves arthouse film, getting stoned, and ignoring her texts.

That is until she meets Emily, the daughter of one of her cleaning clients, who lives in London and works as a model - and a sugar baby. Emily's lifestyle is the escape Agnes has been longing for: tasting menus, private flights to Paris and Miami, rich older men who shower her with compliments and designer gifts. But it comes at a cost.

As Agnes strays even further from her pious upbringing, she is sent on a crash course which will upend everything she ever thought she knew about herself, men, money, and what it means to love and be loved . . .

Rezensionen

Sugar, Babydepicts the glittering world of the young women who make a kind of living by showing up at clubs and restaurants to burnish their associations with youth and beauty. Are these women being taken advantage of—or are they on the ride of their lives? This personable novel . . . doesn't come down on one side of the equation. Instead, it shows the grit alongside the glamor, and crafts a very believable story that feels like a document of the moment, when image is a valuable and fleeting currency.
