The perfect read for fans of Succession or The White LotusAs a novelist, Tarkington is the real deal. I cant wait to see this story reach a wide audience.Paula McLain, author of The Paris WifeWhen Charlie Boykin was young, he thought his life with his single mother on the workingclass side of Nashville was perfectly fine. But when his mother arranges for him to be admitted as a scholarship student to an elite private school, he is suddenly introduced to what the world can feel like to someone cushioned by money. That world, he discovers, is an almost irresistible place where one can bendand breakrules and still end up untarnished. As he gets drawn into a friendship with a charismatic upperclassman, Archer Creigh, and an affluent family that treats him like an adopted son, Charlie quickly adapts to life in the upper echelons of Nashville society. Under their charming and alcoholsoaked spell, how can he not relax and enjoy it allthe lack of anxiety over money, the easy summers spent poolside at perfectly appointed mansions, the lavish parties, the freedom to make mistakes knowing that everything can be glossed over or fixed?But over time, Charlie is increasingly pulled into covering for Archers constant deceits and his casual bigotry. At what point will the attraction of wealth and prestige wear off enough for Charlie to take a standand will he?For readers of Wiley Cash, Ann Patchett, and Pat Conroy, The Fortunate Ones is an immersive, elegantly written story that conveys both the seductiveness of this world and the corruption of the people who see their ascent to the top as their birthright.
