The unforgettable new novel about the enduring power of connection in a world of increasing distance, from the bestselling, National Book Award-winning author of The Friend

Three strangers are thrown together in one Manhattan apartment: a solitary writer; a Gen Z college drop-out; and a spirited parrot named Eureka. The Vulnerables reveals what happens when strangers are willing to open their hearts to each other and how far even small acts of caring can go to ease another's distress.

Smart, funny and provocative, Sigrid Nunez's new novel explores the nature and purpose of friendship, love and art in our complicated current times.
