Nathan Hill is an American novelist who made a strong impression with his debut, The Nix, in 2016. The novel follows a college professor whose mother, who abandoned him as a child, reappears in his life after assaulting a presidential candidate. The book became a bestseller and received wide critical praise, with rights sold in more than 30 countries.
Hill’s second novel, Wellness (2023), arrived seven years after The Nix. It examines a long marriage and the stories people tell themselves to stay together. Hill is a deliberate writer, and his two novels have been enough to establish him as a respected voice in contemporary American literary fiction.
