Ryan Chapman’s THE AUDACITY has received generous press in the weeks leading up to its publication. The book was featured on San Diego Magazine’s must-read picks from local bookstores, where Matthew Hein of The Book Catapult praises: “If you like hilarious and action-packed novels about far-from-perfect people, have I got a book for you. Theranos meets THE BIG LEBOWSKI, with the luxury porn of CRAZY RICH ASIANS sprinkled on top.” Electric Literature published an excerpt from the novel, introduced with fantastic praise from Kevin Nguyen: “Chapman performs [a careful dance] throughout THE AUDACITY, a thorough and satisfying skewering of an illuminati-level elite…If you had the pleasure of reading Chapman’s first book, RIOTS I HAVE KNOWN, you know that he can land a high-concept satire. (RIOTS is about a literary magazine in a prison.) Similarly, THE AUDACITY is a novel with a heightened sense of reality. It’s not just the opulence of the secret Caribbean island where the story takes place—it’s the glimpse of an existence that is louder and more colorful than the universe we live in. And, of course, like any good satire, it’s funny—sometimes dryly funny, but in many moments actually laugh-out-loud funny.” Soho Press will publish THE AUDACITY on April 2, 2024.

A starred review from Kirkus for Plum Sykes’ WIVES LIKE US raves: “Sykes gives Kevin Kwan a run for his money in this saga of obscene wealth, designer outfits, miniature dog breeds, and over-the-top landscaping set in Oxfordshire, a rural area of vast estates now mostly in the hands of the nouveau riche…Crazy Rich Brits may not have the amazing cuisine of their Asian counterparts, but they are just as scheming, fabulous, and fun to read about…you’ll dive in and never look back.” The book was also featured in the UK’s The Times, where Simon Mills writes: “Its publication may still be two months away, but a new novel by Plum Sykes…is already being feverishly discussed…Attempting to do for the Cotswolds what F Scott Fitzgerald did for West Egg and its inspiration, the Hamptons (and what Peter Mayle did for Provence), WIVES LIKE US, set in the super-rich houses of West Oxfordshire, is a bandbox shiny satirette of country living where everyone is unmuddied but filthy rich.” Harper will publish WIVES LIKE US on May 14, 2024.
