Named a Summer Must Read by Wall Street Journal, Elle, Harper’s Bazaar, Entertainment Weekly, Glamour, Esquire, Bustle

“[Hoby] might have just written the defining New York City novel of our fraught, socially anxious, & politically tumultuous times.” — Interview

“Intense & addictive.” — NY Times

°°° 

A powerful novel of youth, desire, & moral conflict, in which a young man is seduced by the mirage of glamour—at terrible cost.
Arriving in New York City for an internship at an elite but fading magazine, Luca feels invisible: smart but not worldly, privileged but broke, & uncertain how to navigate a new era of social change. Among his peers is Zara, a young Black woman whose sharp wit and frank views on injustice create tension in the office, especially in the wake of a shock election that’s irrevocably destabilized American life. 

In the months that follow, as the streets of New York fill with pink-hatted protesters & the magazine faces a changing of the guard, Luca is taken under the wing of an attractive & wealthy white couple—Paula, a prominent artist, & Jason, her filmmaker husband—whose lifestyle he finds both alien & alluring.

With the coming of summer, Luca is swept up in the fever dream of their marriage, accepting an invitation to join the couple & their children at their beach house, & nurturing an infatuation both frustrating & dangerous. Only after he learns of a spectacular tragedy in the city he has left behind does he begin to realize the moral consequences of his allegiances.

In language at once lyrical & incisive, Virtue offers a clear-eyed, unsettling story of the allure of privilege & the costs of complacency, from a writer of astonishing acuity & vision.
