NATIONAL BESTSELLER - LAMBDA LITERARY AWARD FINALIST - Two young housemates embark on a road trip to discover themselves in this "exceptional, keenly observed meditation on art and love" (People) in a fractured America, by the award-winning author of The Third Rainbow Girl

"Tender, nuanced, and hilarious."--Oprah Daily
15 LGBTQ+ Books to Read for Pride--Time

A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: People, The Boston Globe, NBC, Them, Autostraddle, Electric Lit, Kirkus Reviews

This Random House Book Club edition includes a Q&A with Torrey Peters and a discussion guide.

Four housemates, looking for a fifth, the ad read. Queer preferred (we all are).

This is how Bernie, a film photographer, meets Leah, a writer, and from opposite sides of a thin bedroom wall in West Philadelphia, the two become closer than they ever could have imagined. When Leah volunteers to accompany Bernie on a road trip to settle a complicated inheritance, what ensues is an unexpected journey into the heart of America as the duo try to make sense of the times they are living in--falling in love with each other and rediscovering the power of making art along the way.

With humor, warmth, and beautifully observed characters, and told through two generations of queer artists reflecting on the question of how a person should be, Housemates is a glorious celebration of creativity, body liberation, chosen family--and of finding your place in an uncertain world.
