![When four classmates from a small Massachusetts college move to New York to make their way, they're broke, adrift, and buoyed only by their friendship and ambition... Over the decades, their relationships deepen and darken, tinged by addiction, success, and pride. Yet their greatest challenge, each comes to realize, is [their center of gravity] Jude, ... by midlife a terrifyingly talented litigator yet an increasingly broken man, his mind and body scarred by an unspeakable childhood, and haunted by what he fears is a degree of trauma that he'll not only be unable to overcome--but that will define his life forever.](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEisKDMOxmof5JzPo9iIUUL5vRA0tCmMM7q7m_mz45oy_L2ZyRF1NIDSA5_OL6J4LJ8mPUYvK-9wkBCTjYs7HetoSQjmmmO0jVBpMaMmw7MMmN-C82ki5RKBCxIcWbJ8hdBrf48/s200/a+little+life.jpg)
