Olivia Wolfgang-Smith writes with gusto, confidence and humor, and it's a magical combination. Vivian Lesperance is a delightful, brilliant woman vying to enter a society that has no room for her, and I rooted for Vivian every step of the way. But it's the love story that beats at the heart of this novel that won me completely: Squire and Oscar forever and ever.

Ann Napolitano, New York Times bestselling author of HELLO BEAUTIFUL and DEAR EDWARD

A glittering portrait of post-Gilded Age New York, Mutual Interest is also a timeless queer love story and a meditation on power, capitalism, and the flow of history. Wolfgang-Smith's writing is as wise as it is witty; this novel is a revelation and a joy.

Anna North, New York Times Bestselling author of Outlawed

A sumptuous delight . . . as witty as it is deadly serious, as joyous as it is razor-sharp. I loved every single brilliant page.

Clare Beams, author of THE GARDEN

The alluring world of Mutual Interest is populated by a remarkable, defiant cast of characters . . . Olivia Wolfgang-Smith has created something towering, labyrinthine, and utterly captivating.

Temim Fruchter, author of CITY OF LAUGHTER

Deeply imagined and immersive . . . I needed this novel, both for its cathartic devastation and the hope found in its wreckage.
