"The Award begins as a wryly funny satire of thwarted literary ambition, but it quickly evolves into something darker and more disturbing. Matthew Pearl's addictive and propulsive novel has the twisted nightmare logic of a Patricia Highsmith thriller."--Tom Perrotta, New York Times bestselling author of Tracy Flick Can't Win and Mrs. Fletcher

"A propulsive and gripping novel about the literary world, ambition, deception and murder and the twisted corner where they all intersect. Matthew Pearl grabs you from the first sentence and doesn't let go."--Laura Dave, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Night We Lost Him

The author of Save Our Souls and The Dante Club makes his eagerly awaited return to fiction with this irreverent and propulsive novel about a young writer trying to make his way through a cutthroat literary scene that turns deadly.

David Trent is an aspiring novelist in Cambridge, Massachusetts, trying to navigate his ambitions in a place that has writers around every corner.

He lives in an apartment above a Very Famous Author named Silas Hale who, beneath his celebrated image, is a bombastic, vindictive monster who refuses to allow his new neighbor even to make eye contact with him.

Until young David wins a prestigious award for his new book.

Suddenly Silas is interested--if intensely spiteful.

But soon, the administrator of the award comes to David with alarming news, forcing the writer into a desperate set of choices.

Fate intervenes--with shocking consequences. . . .

With the wit and psychological wisdom of The Plot and The Winner, The Award is a timely, razor-sharp, and unputdownable novel about writing groups, publishing, ambition, human foibles, and the dangerous things we will do to get ahead.

Buy this gold clutch purse rated a 5
Color: Gold
Gold clutch purse with chain strap. Absolutely beautiful! I’ll get a photo and come back to update. It looks and feels like a quality purse. Buy this purse. Rated a 5! Love it. Update: the smell the reviewers are talking about is the new smell. I did try the gold chain and once you snap it on the purse doesn’t close so I’m not using it and I’m okay with that.

Images don’t do justice to this beautiful bag IRL
Javier’s wife. This handbag is absolutely stunning! It is beautiful, the definition of classy and elegance for a clutch. Not your regular only one wedding wear cheap looking and common sparkle clutch. (that you find at mall stores). This bag is for a fine lady., is not your daughter’s purse. It is very well made with attention to details inside and out. Good materials. It looks like cream leather with silver handle piece. The size is wonderful too. It is just right. It isn’t small but still a hand bag. It is very elegant. It pairs amazingly well with my pale pink maid of honor wedding dress, because the cream color of the bag seems to have a faint pinkish undertone that is very beautiful, hardly noticeable, but when next to the pink fabric of the dress it shows more and looks very stylish. It would look spot on also with black and white business casual attire, cocktail dinner parties. That cream, silver combination looks well almost with anything and will dress up almost every outfit from simple to elegantly stunning. I will add pictures later. I just received it today. I am in love with this bag. 5 stars 100%.
