NIGHT NIGHT FAWN

— coming March 3, 2026 from One World/Random House

From the author of Confessions of the Fox comes a novel in which a woman on her deathbed gives an unrepentant account of all her failures — including her child.

In a cluttered rent-controlled apartment in the middle of Manhattan, Barbara Rosenberg is terminally ill, high on opioids, and writing the story of her life. She's got plenty to say about her smutty memories of her late husband, her career as the receptionist for a disreputable plastic surgeon, and her failed aspirations to be a film noir actress. But what she really wants to rant about are her candid and outrageous opinions on gender, Karl Marx, Zionism, and her two great disappointing loves: an estranged trans son and a long lost best friend whose betrayal haunts Barbara still. As she descends further into delirium and illness, Barbara finds herself in a nightmare from which she cannot escape, and her circumstances put her on a crash course with these intimates - or are they avenging nemeses? - once again.

Part novel, part someone’s mother’s unauthorized memoir - all diatribe, gutter schtick, and deranged manifesto, Night Night Fawn is a provocative reckoning with the intersection of one life by the defining historical forces of our times
