Witty, raw, and unexpectedly uplifting, A Long Way Down tackles the heavy topic of suicide with Nick Hornby’s trademark dark humor and emotional honesty. Four strangers meet on a rooftop on New Year’s Eve, all intending to end their lives—but what unfolds is a messy, moving, and oddly heartwarming journey of connection, pain, and second chances. It’s tragic, funny, and deeply human all at once.
