Yes, Daddy
Overview
A propulsive, scorching modern gothic, Yes, Daddy follows an ambitious young man who is lured by an older, successful playwright into a dizzying world of wealth and an idyllic Hamptons home where things take a nightmarish turn.
Jonah Keller moved to New York City with dreams of becoming a successful playwright, but, for the time being, lives in a rundown sublet in Bushwick, working extra hours at a restaurant only to barely make rent. When he stumbles upon a photo of Richard Shriverβthe glamorous Pulitzer Prizeβwinning playwright and quite possibly the stepping stone to the fame he cravesβJonah orchestrates their meeting. The two begin a hungry, passionate affair.
When summer arrives, Richard invites his young lover for a spell at his sprawling estate in the Hamptons. A tall iron fence surrounds the idyllic compound where Richard and a few of his close artist friends entertain, have lavish dinners, andβJonah canβt help but noticeβemploy a waitstaff of young, attractive gay men, many of whom sport ugly bruises. Soon, Jonah is cast out of Richardβs good graces and a sinister underlay begins to emerge. As a series of transgressions lead inexorably to a violent climax, Jonah hurtles toward a decisive revenge that will shape the rest of his life.
Riveting, unpredictable, and compulsively readable, Yes, DaddyΒ is an exploration of class, power dynamics, and the nuances of victimhood and complicity. It burns with weight and clarityβand offers hope that stories may hold the key to our healing.
