Now Jordan, Jordy, Naomi, Craig, and Marielle find themselves at the brink of a new decade, with all the responsibilities of adulthood, yet no closer to having their lives figured out. Though not for a lack of trying. Over the years they've reunited in Big Sur to honor a decades-old pact to throw each other living \"funerals,\" celebrations to remind themselves that life is worth living--that their lives mean something, to one another if not to themselves. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBut this reunion is different. They're not gathered as they were to bolster Marielle as her marriage crumbled, to lift Naomi after her parents died, or to intervene when Craig pleaded guilty to art fraud. This time, Jordan is sitting on a secret that will upend their pact. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eA deeply honest tribute to the growing pains of selfhood and the people who keep us going, coupled with Steven Rowley's signature humor and heart, \u003ci\u003eThe Celebrants\u003c\/i\u003e is a moving tale about the false invincibility of youth and the beautiful ways in which friendship helps us celebrate our lives, even amid the deepest challenges of living.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSteven Rowley\u003c\/b\u003e is the bestselling author of five novels including, \u003ci\u003eLily and the Octopus, \u003c\/i\u003e a \u003ci\u003eWashington Post\u003c\/i\u003e Notable Book; \u003ci\u003eThe Editor, \u003c\/i\u003e an NPR Best Book of the Year; \u003ci\u003eThe Guncle, \u003c\/i\u003e winner of the 22nd Thurber Prize for American Humor and Goodreads Choice Awards finalist for Novel of the Year; and \u003ci\u003eThe Celebrants, \u003c\/i\u003ea \u003ci\u003eNew York Times \u003c\/i\u003ebestseller and TODAY Show\u003ci\u003e #ReadWithJenna Book Club \u003c\/i\u003epick.
