Something Close to Nothing (2024)
Tom Pyun
"This is a mesmerizing debut novel. Something Close to Nothing is a candid, funny, and shocking dissection of the relationship between one of those gay couples who look perfect in their social media posts. Tom Pyun is writing about contemporary queer life with an honesty and depth that is astounding and welcomed. He has a talent for hitting us with gut punches that turn into belly laughs."
