Recenzii

"Theennui of the modern-day privileged class has rarely been captured as poignantlyas in Luke Tredget'sKismet, a deeplyfelt reflection of the ways in which technology that was supposed to bringpeople closer together often only serves to isolate them (and occasionallydrive them mad). And as Tredget's complicated, often frustrating, but eminentlyrelatable protagonist shows, the truest human connection occurs when we put ourphones away."—Doree Shafrir, author of Startup
"Tredgetwrites a funny, timely story, with flawed and relatable characters, about howtechnology affects our desires and what it means to 'settle.' Though hesatirizes modern dating and the idea of perfection in a relationship, he writeswith an engaging warmth and lightness. Readers will surely enjoy this wittymodern love story."—Booklist
"Asharply written and heartfelt story about the connections between us,technological or otherwise. Luke Tredget has created a protagonist so lovablethat you won't be able to stop reading until you know her fate."—Leslie Cohen, author of This Love Story Will Self-Destruct
"Sharp,witty and full of tension...an intelligent and highly readable novel."—Irish Times
"Tredget'strenchant, entertaining debut traces how big data and social media have becomean obstacle for healthy relationships...Anincisive view of the uncertainties of contemporary adulthood."—Publishers Weekly
"Kismetis compelling for more thanits unflinching study of the infiltration of romance by technology andalgorithms. At its heart this novel is about what endures in spite of all that;a modern love story of exceptional warmth, intelligence and humanity."—Luke Kennard, author of The Transition
it "[a] perceptive debut novel...[a] fast-moving and witty love story forthe digital age."—Shelf-Awareness
