DARKLY HILARIOUS AND SEARINGLY RELEVANT, THE RABBIT HUTCH IS A POWERFUL PORTRAIT OF 21ST CENTURY AMERICA, SEEN THROUGH THE EYES OF THE UNFORGETTABLE BLANDINE. Winner of the Waterstones Debut Fiction Prize 2022, Winner of the National Book Award for Fiction 2022, Inventive, heartbreaking, and acutely funny, Observer. Vacca Vale, Indiana: recently voted number 1 on Newsweek's list of dying American cities. According to the developers, however, it's a city with a whole history of reinvention, one that buzzes with the American spirit. Not everyone agrees, though, certainly not the residents of the Rabbit Hutch, a low-cost housing complex in the once bustling industrial center, populated by a cast of unforgettable, disenfranchised characters. There's an online obituary writer, a woman waging a solo campaign against rodents, and, most notably, eighteen-year-old Blandine, recently released from foster care and determined to stop the developers, whatever the cost. Set over one sweltering week in July, The Rabbit Hutch is a savagely beautiful and bitingly funny snapshot of contemporary America. Bold, experimental, and brilliantly written, it will live in the memory long after the final page.
