About this product

Product Information

*A New York Times Notable Book of 2022* * A Washington Post Notable Work of Fiction* *An NPR Best Book of the Year* *A New Yorker Best Book of 2022* From the New York Times bestselling author of The Plot , Jean Hanff Korelitz's The Latecomer is a layered and immersive literary novel about three siblings, desperate to escape one another, and the upending of their family by the late arrival of a fourth. The Latecomer follows the story of the wealthy, New York City-based Oppenheimer family, from the first meeting of parents Salo and Johanna, under tragic circumstances, to their triplets born during the early days of IVF. As children, the three siblings - Harrison, Lewyn, and Sally - feel no strong familial bond and cannot wait to go their separate ways, even as their father becomes more distanced and their mother more desperate. When the triplets leave for college, Johanna, faced with being truly alone, makes the decision to have a fourth child. What role will the "latecomer" play in this fractured family? A complex novel that builds slowly and deliberately, The Latecomer touches on the topics of grief and guilt, generational trauma, privilege and race, traditions and religion, and family dynamics. It is a profound and witty family story from an accomplished author, known for the depth of her character studies, expertly woven storylines, and plot twists.

Reviews
"Jean Hanff Korelitz is an ambidextrous writer: not only can she write a tight and absorbing literary thriller like The Plot , but with The Latecomer she draws us in again, this time with her ease, grace and wit, in a satisfying novel that spans generations, lives, and fates." -- Meg Wolitzer, The New York Times bestselling author of The Female Persuasion " It's a marvelous story full of plot twists, intricacies, and depth in events that the reader will not see coming. Perfect for fans of character-based novels such as those by Sally Rooney or Lauren Groff." -- Library Journal "Korelitz ( The Plot ) returns with an irresistible dramedy of errors about a singularly unhappy family. This is a sizzler." -- Publishers Weekly, STARRED Review " It's a slow burn, but this complex and layered story of the Oppenheimer family is worth hanging on...." -- Good Housekeeping , " The 30 Best and Most-Anticipated Books of 2022 (So Far)" "An ingenious family epic." -- Oprah Daily, "Jean Hanff Korelitz is an ambidextrous writer: not only can she write a tight and absorbing literary thriller like The Plot , but with The Latecomer she draws us in again, this time with her ease, grace and wit, in a satisfying novel that spans generations, lives, and fates." -- Meg Wolitzer, The New York Times bestselling author of The Female Persuasion " It's a marvelous story full of plot twists, intricacies, and depth in events that the reader will not see coming.

Husband and wife are at odds; children pull away not only from their parents but from one another. Nimbly, Korelitz juggles the stories of each parent and child, weaving a tapestry of secrets, antipathies and private quests. ... It's testament to Korelitz's achievement that her novel leaves us wanting more. Her tale is both compulsively readable and thought-provoking. ... Like [Edith] Wharton, she invites the reader to reflect, even as she paints a picture of privilege. A sumptuously wrapped gift, The Latecomer is a Gilded Age novel for the 21st century." -- New York Times Book Review " It's a marvelous story full of plot twists, intricacies, and depth in events that the reader will not see coming.
