The Thirty Day Question

Sebastian Jon lives a life he once could only dream of—and he hates every goddamn second of it.

So, he sets a date, in 30 days, he’ll end his life.

But a strange old man intervenes. A strained friendship is tested anew. And a perfectly charming woman interrupts. What follows is a weighty and darkly funny unraveling of one man’s perfectly constructed end.

The Thirty Day Question is a sharp, character-driven novel about performative happiness, alienation, the weight of being fully human, and what happens when the exit you’ve planned gets interrupted.

Perfect for fans of literary fiction with dark humor and existential weight—think Nunez, Backman, or My Year of Rest and Relaxation—this debut is for anyone who’s ever looked around and quietly wondered if this is all life has to offer.
