Cecilia Rabess is equal parts comedian and sorcerer, reminding us that none of us are (only) as we appear. Review Quote 'Everything's Fine poses incisive questions about love, identity, and the countless ways these things can both bruise and bolster one another. Cecilia Rabess has crafted an extraordinarily brave debut that's painfully real—but plain funny as hell, too.' Review QuoteBoth entertaining and wise, a page-turner that explores race, class, , and ambition and how love and compromise work (or don’t) in our current political climate. Review Quote Original, confident, hilarious Review QuoteA brilliantly observed novel about what it means to lose yourself as a young woman. So funny but also incredibly trueWhen Jess, a liberal Black woman, falls reluctantly, complicatedly, deeply in love with Josh, a preppy white conservative, she is forced to ask herself whether love can overcome two very different ways of seeing the world What’s at stake when you fall in love? When Jess first meets Josh at their Ivy League college she dislikes him immediately. Josh stands for everything that Jess opposes: a handsome white guy in chinos, ready to take over the world. Meanwhile Jess is almost always the only black woman in their class. She’s sick of the casual racism, the class debates about affirmative action, and she’s especially sick of insensitive, know-it-all, Josh, who isn’t shy about broadcasting his infuriating opinions.But when, after graduating, Jess and Josh end up working together in the same bank, talking about the things they both love, equally despising their awful boss, it seems their connection might be deeper than Jess ever could have imagined.As their tempestuous friendship turns into an electrifying romance that shocks them both, Jess begins to question who she is and what she’s really willing to compromise for love.‘A stunning debut’ Meg Mason, author of Sorrow and Bliss'Original, confident, hilarious' Sathnam Sanghera, author of Empireland Biographical NoteCecilia Rabess previously worked as a data scientist at and as an associate at Goldman Sachs.
