His Favorites: A Novel

A â€œtense, taut, and thrillingâ€ (Marie Claire) novel about a teenage girl, a predatory teacher, and a schoolâ€™s complicity from the highly acclaimed, bestselling National Book Award finalist and author of A Short History of Womenâ€”â€œriveting, terrifying, exactly the book for our timesâ€ (Ann Patchett).

They were on a lark, three teenaged girls speeding across the greens at night on a â€œborrowedâ€ golf cart, drunk. The cart crashes and one of the girls lands violently in the rough, killed instantly. The driver, Jo, flees the hometown that has turned against her and enrolls at a prestigious boarding school. Her past weighs on her. She is responsible for the death of her best friend. She has tipped her parentsâ€™ rocky marriage into demise. She is ready to begin again, far away from the accident.

â€œDevastatingly relevantâ€ (Vogue) and â€œfueled by gorgeous writingâ€ (NPR), His Favorites reveals the interior life of a young woman determined to navigate the treachery in a new world. Told from her perspective many years later, the story coolly describes a series of shattering events and a school that failed to protect her. â€œBefore things turn treacherous, thereâ€™s a moment when predation can feel dangerously like kindnessâ€¦Walbert understands thisâ€¦His Favorites begs to be readâ€ (Time).
