"Brat is a raucous story of the messy, messed-up business of living, dying and having a family." --Financial Times "The novel crackles with gothic horror, deadpan humor, and a damning sense of alienation that you won't soon shake." --Chicago Review of Books
From a provocative literary talent, a hilarious and haunted novel grappling with grief, inheritance, and the ghosts of his past We meet our ill-tempered protagonist--the titular "brat"--at a low moment, but not yet at rock bottom. Gabriel is mourning the death of his father as well as a recent breakup and struggling to ?nish writing his second book. Alone and aimless, he agrees to move back into his parents' house to clear it out for sale. In fragments and ?gments, Gabriel takes us on a surreal journey into the mysteries of the family home, where he ?nds un?nished manuscripts written by his parents that seem to mutate every time he picks them up and a bizarre home video that hints at long-buried secrets. Strange people and ?gures emerge--perhaps directly from the novel's embedded ?ctions--but despite his compromised state, Gabriel is determined to try to make sense of these hauntings. Part ghost story, part grief story, ?irting with the auto-?ctional mode while sitting squarely in the tradition of the gothic, Brat crackles with dead-pan humor and delightfully taut prose, heralding the next generation of ?ction--formally inventive, in?uenced by the rhythms of the internet, and infused with a particularly Gen Z sense of alienation.
