“Ambition bites back in Isabel Kaplan’s NSFW . . . So visceral . . . NSFW makes your brain spin on the #MeToo merry-go-round that’s come derailed from the base and spontaneously set on fire. Bleak and brave, this novel is a reminder of how skewered women are, no matter ‘how far we’ve come.’”
— The New York Times
What People Are Saying
"Explosive . . . [NSFW] lays bare the many troubling elements of Hollywood's corporate culture, from veiled sexism to blatant sexual harassment."
“An intoxicating exploration of male-dominated workplaces . . . NSFW is gripping, with a lot to unpack, making it excellent book-club fodder.”
“Compelling contradictions abound in Isabel Kaplan’s novel NSFW, which sucks you in from the start…I’ve been counting down the days for this book to be released so I have more people with whom to discuss the cliffhanger ending, which I can’t stop thinking about.”
“I devoured NSFW. The complexities of who we are, what we stand for, and what we hope we stand for―plus the ramifications of all the choices we make―are beautifully explored. I learned from this novel and I am grateful for it.”
