Synopsis "Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow: A Novel (Random House Large Print) "

NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLER - Sam and Sadie--two college friends, often in love, but never lovers--become creative partners in a dazzling and intricately imagined world of video game design, where success brings them fame, joy, tragedy, duplicity, and, ultimately, a kind of immortality. It is a love story, but not one you have read before. "Delightful and absorbing." --The New York Times - "Utterly brilliant." --John Green One of the Best Books of the Year: The New York Times, Entertainment Weekly, TIME, GoodReads, Oprah Daily From the best-selling author of The Storied Life of A. J. Fikry On a bitter-cold day, in the December of his junior year at Harvard, Sam Masur exits a subway car and sees, amid the hordes of people waiting on the platform, Sadie Green. He calls her name. For a moment, she pretends she hasn't heard him, but then, she turns, and a game begins: a legendary collaboration that will launch them to stardom. These friends, intimates since childhood, borrow money, beg favors, and, before even graduating college, they have created their first blockbuster, Ichigo. Overnight, the world is theirs. Not even twenty-five years old, Sam and Sadie are brilliant, successful, and rich, but these qualities won't protect them from their own creative ambitions or the betrayals of their hearts. Spanning thirty years, from Cambridge, Massachusetts, to Venice Beach, California, and lands in between and far beyond, Gabrielle Zevin's Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow examines the multifarious nature of identity, disability, failure, the redemptive possibilities in play, and above all, our need to connect: to be loved and to love.

Born in New York in 1977, Gabrielle Zevin has established herself as one of the most versatile and original voices in contemporary literature. A Harvard University graduate with studies in English and American Literature, she has cultivated a career that smoothly transitions between adult fiction and young adult literature, demonstrating an unusual ability to move and connect with readers of all ages. Her most celebrated work, The Storied Life of A. J. Fikry (2014), was an editorial phenomenon: it remained for more than 28 weeks on the New York Times bestseller list, was translated into 35 languages, and was adapted into a movie in 2022 as A. J. Fikry's Little Bookshop. This tribute to books and bookstores earned her the Southern California Independent Booksellers Award and a nomination for the Medici Book Club Prize, securing her place in the international literary scene.

However, Zevin's talent is not limited to adult fiction. Since her beginnings as a film screenwriter, she has developed a close, emotional, and sharp narrative, which is also reflected in her young adult literature. Her novel Elsewhere (2005), a poetic reflection on life after death, was recognized by Publishers Weekly as one of the best books of the year. Later, Young Jane Young (2017) was applauded for its critical and feminist view on politics and public morals. Her most recent title, Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow (2022), which explores the world of video games and the complexity of friendship, became her biggest success to date, winning the Goodreads Choice Award and reaching a new global audience. Zevin, whose work has been translated into more than 40 languages, lives in Los Angeles with her partner, composer Hans Van de Burg, and continues to expand her literary universe with each new publication.
