Hailed as one of the ten new books by Philly authors to read this summer, "Housemates is a thoughtful and cinematic road trip novel about fast friends looking for America in a wandering, pondering Simon & Garfunkel kind of way."

Praise for Housemates:

"An intimate portrait of a burgeoning relationship against the vast landscape of the open road, Housemates is a warm and inviting novel. Like the large format camera her character wields, Eisenberg captures the complexity of both people and places with precision and generosity. And finally, a book about Pennsylvania and Philly that looks like the place I know and love!"—Sara Nović, author of True Biz

“Ripe and undeniably rich, Housemates is a full-on sensory experience. The novel delights in rendering its bodies–human and landscape alike–as wholly, queerly complex. . . I fell deeply in love with this book, marveling at its lushness and its attention to detail, happy to follow wherever I was led. Emma Copley Eisenberg is a brilliant writer and Housemates is superb.” —Kristen Arnett, author of Mostly Dead Things

"Radiant and invigoratingly truthful, Housemates invites us to think about the community and country that are possible when we love." —Megha Majumdar, author of A Burning
