Om May Our Joy Endure

Céline Wachowski is having a bad day. The internationally renowned architect, host of a hit Netflix show and source of a thousand memes, has just unveiled her plans for a major public project in her hometown of Montreal. It should be the jewel in her glittering crown; but an initial spark of dissent ignites into a full-blown scandal, with Céline's firm excoriated for destroying fragile communities, ushering in a new era of gentrification and many deadlier sins. As furious protestors and critical media chip away at her empire, Céline tries to shore up her splendid world that once seemed so secure. With flowing prose that glints with irony, Kevin Lambert infiltrates the upper echelons of society to depict the dreams and anxieties on which skyscrapers are built. This is a dazzlingly stylish social novel about the ways wealth shapes our world - and the fictions the powerful tell themselves so that their joy endures.
