The Goldster Magazine Show Book Club with Lucinda

with Celeste Ng Author of Everything I Never Told You
27 August 2024

What happens to a community when it attempts to deal with a local tragedy and the repercussions for a griefstricken family? After sixteen-year-old Lydia goes missing and her body turns up in the lake, the police rule it as a suicide, but Lydia's family are determined to search for clues about what really happened.

 

Everything I Never Told You was Celeste Ng’s debut novel. It became an instant bestseller, when it was published in 2014, and has been described as a modern classic. One critic called it “A blistering study in grief and belonging that doubles as a gripping mystery of secrets buried in plain sight, [it] … ripples with emotion and insight. A novel of difference, the immigrant experience and the changing face of American society; an exquisitely realised work.”
