THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER



Ocean Vuong returns with an achingly beautiful novel about chosen family, unexpected friendship, and the stories we tell ourselves in order to survive




One summer evening in the town of East Gladness, Connecticut, nineteen-year-old Hai stands on a bridge, ready to jump, when he hears someone shout across the river. The voice belongs to Grazina, an elderly widow succumbing to dementia. Over the course of the year, the unlikely pair develops a life-altering bond.



The Emperor of Gladness shows the profound ways in which our lives are changed by the most unexpected of people. When Hai takes a job at a diner to support himself and Grazina, his fellow workers become the family he didn't expect to find. United by desperation and circumstance, and existing on the fringes of society, together they bear witness to each other's survival.



'Some of the most beautiful writing I've experienced in my lifetime' OPRAH WINFREY



'Perfectly tuned... May well be the first millennial Great American Novel' ArtReview




'A fine-grained social panorama driven by the developing camaraderie of an ensemble cast bonded in precariousness and pain' Observer




'His most vivid, ambitious work yet' Dazed




'A poetic, dramatic and vivid story. It has an epic sweep but it also handles intimacy and love with delicacy and deep originality'

Perfect Jeans!
Size: 26, Color: Verified Vintage, Size: 26, Color: Verified Vintage
Love these jeans, so soft and lightweight but with all the usual Levi’s class. I bought them in three different colors. They’re so well fitting and comfortable to wear. Im 5’5 140 pounds and it is true to size. The perfect fit every time.!

Classics! Good material with no stretch.
Size: 28, Color: Verified Vintage
I am in love with these jeans. I ordered another pair in a different wash. I also sized up two sizes but I like the looser, slouchy fit.

I love these. They fit perfect in the waist but are roomy else where.

My favorite ever jean, I have a pair in every color
Size: 26, Color: Not My News Channel
I’m a little lanky (5’9”, 125-130lbs) and I want to like wide leg/baggy jeans so bad but every time I try them on, they look ridiculous on me. I look like a straight line in them, or they’re so baggy I feel like I’m wearing a costume. These have the baggy look I’ve been searching for for years but in an understated way that doesn’t make me feel shapeless. I’m also convinced that the buttons are more flattering over the fupa than a zipper. It’s like a hidden corset vs. a zipper that contours to your shape. If you’re in between sizes, definitely size down. Even if you’re not, you may still want to size down or buy both and return the one you don’t like

Too short
Size: 29W x 30L, Color: Ecru Booper No Damage
Sadly not meant for tall people. I am 6” and these jeans are at least 3 inches too short, so i will be returning them. Disappointing that they don’t come in tall.
