Startup by Doree Shafrir
4.0

4.5 ⭐️

I really enjoyed this funny, cutting look at the start up culture in Manhattan in the mid 2010’s. I think Tom Wolfe would be proud she was doing what he would call her “sociological duty” as a novelist. While this isn’t a panorama or even a satire, Shafrir gets the dilemmas and absurdities of this culture from several womens’ points of view and doesn’t tie it up too neatly.
