True love or easy money--which would you choose? Fresh out of grad school with her masters in philosophy, Anna is shocked when a career counselor tells her she has "no special skills." Desperate for work and financial independence, she accepts a thankless gig working for a TV talk show. She might be making minimum wage, but at least she has her beloved boyfriend Lulu, the love of her life, to come home to at night. But one day Lulu runs to the bathroom and starts throwing up cash--thousands of euros in just a few days--hurtling the twentysomething couple into unforeseen wealth. Having spent their lives proudly rejecting consumer society, they suddenly find themselves rich, and Anna is loving every minute of it: she gets a designer bag, they vacation in Tahiti, they throw wild parties in their new luxury apartment. As Anna grows accustomed to living large, Lulu's health suffers, and she wonders: What would be worse, losing him or losing the money? In Self-Worth French debut novelist Emma Tholozan delivers a raw, brutally funny portrait of a generation without ideals.
