White Fur Résumé

White Fur: A love story of equal parts grit and glamour Jardine Libaire

Elise: a street-smart girl from the wrong side of the tracks.

Jamey: the golden son of a wealthy and powerful East Coast family.

They make an unlikely couple.

At first theirs is a classic tale of sexual obsession, of wanting something you shouldn't have. A brutal coming of age. But as they get to know each other what started as a challenge gradually transforms, and their obsession slowly turns into something more like love.

Jamey leaves behind his Yale education, divorcing his family and their wealth, and they invent a new life together that surprises them both. But Jamey's controlling family are not going to give him up easily . . .

White Fur Avis

Amazing . . . Wildly, darkly romantic with one of the best endings ever * Daily Mail *
White Fur is glorious: dark, dirty, and sexy, lit up with yearning and raw, young love. Libaire's sentences left me breathless. This is a Roman candle of a novel. I absolutely loved it * Amanda Eyre Ward, author of THE NEARNESS OF YOU and THE SAME SKY *
Brilliantly written and deeply felt, White Fur is a love story by turns comic and tragic, but always moving -- PHILIPP MEYER, author of THE SON and AMERICAN RUST
Each page crackles with the intensity, fury, lust, and pure insane pleasure of first love. Jardine Libaire has written a chronicle of one couple's wild romance: its highs and lows, its delights and contractions, its beauty and its messiness. A delight to read -- Nathan Hill, author of THE NIX
This sexy American fairytale about a star-crossed coupled solidifies Jardine Libaire's status as poet laureate of late nights and young love -- Ada Calhoun, author of ST MARKS IS DEAD
A love story of equal parts grit and glamour, I loved White Fur for its honest portrait of the extremes of American society, and the love that can bloom anywhere, always, despite the odds. Jardine Libaire is an extraordinary talent -- Vanessa Diffenbaugh, author of THE LANGUAGE OF FLOWERS
Two barely-20-somethings from opposite sides of the tracks fall in frantic love amid the lush grit of New York City in the 1980s in Libaire's new novel.... Libaire's New York is...raw and sweaty and intoxicating.... A page-turning whirlwind steeped in pain and hope * Kirkus Reviews *
