Oliver Watson heeft er zijn hele leven hard voor gewerkt: een fatsoenlijk, veilig bestaan voor zijn gezin. Maar opeens valt zijn droom in duigen. Na achttien jaar huwelijk besluit Sarah een eigen carrière te beginnen en het gezin te verlaten. Oliver ziet zich geconfronteerd met een totaal ander leven: een vrijheid die hij nooit heeft gewild en de zorg voor zijn kinderen Ben, Melissa en Sam. Drie mannen zijn plotseling genoodzaakt een andere wending aan hun leven te geven: Oliver in New York en daarna in Los Angeles met zijn kinderen en zijn nieuwe relaties; zijn vader, die net weduwnaar is geworden, met zijn tweede vrouw; en de zeventienjarige Ben met zijn vriendin en hun baby. Ieder van hen moet leren leven met tot dan toe ongekende verantwoordelijkheden, nieuwe liefdes en een scala van nu eens grappige, dan weer ontroerende ervaringen.

Bret Easton Ellis is most famous for his era-defining novel American Psycho and its terrifying anti-hero, Patrick Bateman. With that book, and many times since, Ellis proved himself to be one of the world's most fearless and clear-sighted observers of society - the glittering surface and the darkness beneath. In White, his first work of non-fiction, Ellis offers a wide-ranging exploration of what the hell is going on right now. He tells personal stories from his own life. He writes with razor-sharp precision about the music, movies, books and TV he loves and hates. He examines the ways our culture, politics and relationships have changed over the last four decades. He talks about social media, Hollywood celebrities and Donald Trump. Ellis considers conflicting positions without flinching and adheres to no status quo. His forthright views are powered by a fervent belief in artistic freedom and freedom of speech. Candid, funny, entertaining and blisteringly honest, he offers opinions that are impossible to ignore and certain to provoke. What he values above all is the truth. 'The culture at large seemed to encourage discourse,' he writes, 'but what it really wanted to do was shut down the individual.' Bret Easton Ellis will not be shut down.
