Rachel Lyon, 2018
A compulsively readable and electrifying debut about an ambitious young female artist who accidentally photographs a boy
falling to his death--an image that could jumpstart her career, but
would also devastate her most intimate friendship. One day, in the background of a self-portrait, Lu accidentally captures on film a boy
falling past her window to his death. The photograph turns out to be , the best work of art she's ever made. It's an
image that could change her life...if she lets it. Set in early 90s Brooklyn on the brink of
gentrification, Self-Portrait with Boy
is a provocative commentary about the emotional dues that must be paid
on the road to success, and a brilliant debut from novelist Rachel Lyon.
