When a certain type of person feels dissatisfied despite seemingly successful lives, they start to search for root causes, questioning their upbringing or family, but rarely blaming themselves.
For the siblings in the novel, the kidnapping of their father serves as a tragic excuse for their failures, overshadowing the impact of being born into immense wealth that can distort one's perception.
The significant wealth the siblings inherit may exacerbate their personal challenges, as they receive substantial quarterly checks without being involved in the family business, leading to potential psychological consequences.
Taffy Brodesser-Akner's previous novel and subsequent television adaptation highlighted societal issues, showcasing her ability to resonate with audiences on relatable themes.
