Tomorrow, tomorrow, and yet tomorrow

Yes, it's a love story, but not like any you've read before...

In this novel by the bestselling author of "The Storied Life of A. J. Fikry," two best friends are often full of love for each other, but never become lovers. In the world of video game design, they become partners, and success brings them fame, joy, tragedy, deception, and a certain timeless meaning.

It's a cold December day in their junior year of college when Sam gets off the subway and sees Sadie. He calls her name, and she pretends not to hear, but then turns around. A game begins, a legendary collaboration that will propel them to the top.

Two childhood best friends start looking for funding and seeking help. Before graduating college, they create their first masterpiece, "Ichigo." Overnight, the world is theirs. Though not yet 25, Sam and Sadie have made a splash, successful and wealthy, but none of this can protect them from the harm of ambition or betrayal.

Spanning 30 years, from Cambridge, Massachusetts, to Venice Beach, Los Angeles, and beyond, Gabrielle Zevin's new work "Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow" explores identity, disability, failure, the possibility of redemption, and the formation of relationships: the need to be loved and to love.
