Summary

National Bestseller

Now a major motion picture starring Tom Holland and directed by the Russo Brothers。 A young medic returns from deployment in Iraq to two things: the woman he loves, and the opioid crisis sweeping across the Midwest。

In this "miracle of literary serendipity" (The Washington Post), after finding himself deep in the thrall of heroin addiction, the soldier arrives at what seems like the only logical solution: robbing banks。

Written by a singularly talented, wildly imaginative debut novelist, Cherry is a bracingly funny and unexpectedly tender work of fiction straight from the dark heart of America。

Brutal。 This book is just horrible enough that you should read it。 I’m a firm believer people should be able to write what they want, tell the story they want。 I’m not sure how to feel about “Cherry。” This misogyny and sexism in this book is intense, but the story is important, and I’m happy it wasn’t censored to fit a certain audience。 Veterans’ PTSD is a story that needs to be shared as well as the opioid crisis in the Midwest。 The war stories section of this book is horrific, but it’s importa Brutal。 This book is just horrible enough that you should read it。 I’m a firm believer people should be able to write what they want, tell the story they want。 I’m not sure how to feel about “Cherry。” This misogyny and sexism in this book is intense, but the story is important, and I’m happy it wasn’t censored to fit a certain audience。 Veterans’ PTSD is a story that needs to be shared as well as the opioid crisis in the Midwest。 The war stories section of this book is horrific, but it’s important for people to understand the true trauma and sacrifice of war and the cost paid。 This book is raw in terms of addiction, violence, identity loss, and the overall environment of drugs and crime。 I found the dynamic between the main character and Emily excruciatingly painful to watch yet so captivating at the same time。 The context in which this book was written really pulled me in。 I’ve seen a lot of reviews critiquing the writing - and no, you aren’t reading Steinbeck or Fitzgerald here - but the way the writing is does a great job of reflecting the main character’s narrative, so to me, it gets a pass。 Honestly not mad I read this, but you really have to be cautious when picking it up and know what you’re getting into。 。。。more
