I raved about her first novel: 

Now I must insist you read 
her second novel.  

I wouldn't be surprised if this one takes home 
more than a few 2015 prizes...

 “Yanagihara’s immense new book, A Little Life, announces her, as decisively as a second work can, as a major American novelist. Here is an epic study of trauma and friendship written with such intelligence and depth of perception that it will be one of the benchmarks against which all other novels that broach those subjects (and they are legion) will be measured.”
—Sam Sacks, The Wall Street Journal
