درباره این کتاب صوتی
From the author of How to Be Eaten, a “darkly funny, deeply incisive” (Booklist) take on the campus novel that follows a woman on the edge gigging her way through academia’s poor job market when she crosses paths with her old PhD adviser, whose new novel might be about her.
A LitHub Most Anticipated Book of 2026 * “Tense...Witty...Impeccably written.” —Glamour, Best Books for Book Clubs 2026 * “A unicorn...Truly thought-provoking.” —Bustle, Best New Books of March
Sam, an adjunct professor in Baltimore, is juggling five classes between two campuses when she crosses paths with her former grad school advisor, Dr. Tom Sternberg. The two have a complicated history, and it’s the last thing Sam wants to think about as she navigates academic politics, side hustles, applications for a dwindling number of tenure-track positions, and romantic entanglements with men and women that further complicate a sexuality not even she can define. Then she learns that Tom left his old job for undisclosed reasons—and his long-awaited second novel is about a professor reckoning with his checkered past. As rumors spread that Sam is the inspiration behind a central character, she fights to regain control of the story.
A hilarious yet sobering look at how hustle culture has come to define modern academia, The Adjunct offers a bold twist on a tangled MeToo story and turns Sam’s downward spiral into a searing critique of class and the hollow promises of the American dream.
