Chapter 1: Lost

"Girls" meets "Where'd You Go, Bernadette?" in this humorous modern take on the epistolary novel. Focusing on four friends--Ellie, Judy, Philip, and Kit--and the lives they lead in their mid-twenties, "Youth" is told entirely in emails, texts, IMs, Twitter, blogs, and more. Through dead-end jobs, never-ending student loan debt, mental illness, tragicomic love affairs, and the horrors of online dating, Ellie and co. navigate crises united by wit, perspective, and love.

Slice-of-life comedy with characters you root for, "Youth" is a hilarious testimonial to the modern Millenial experience.
