A Little Life by Hanya Yanagihara

When four college graduates move to New York to make their way, they're broke, adrift, and buoyed only by their friendship and ambitions. There is kind, handsome Willem; JB, a quick-witted Punter seeking entry to the art world; Malcolm, a frustrated architect; and brilliant, enigmatic Jude. Over the decades, their relationships deepen, tinged by addiction, success, and pride. Yet their greatest challenge, each comes to realise, is Jude himself, by midlife a talented and successful lawyer yet an increasingly broken man, haunted by a degree of childhood trauma that he fears he will not only be unable to overcome - but that
will define his life forever.

In a novel of extraordinary, intelligence and heart, Yanagihara has fashioned a masterful depiction of heartbreak, and a dark and haunting examination of the tyranny of experience and memory.
