About this Event
Boswell Book Company presents an evening with Kelsey Rae Dimberg, author of Snake Oil.
Rhoda is a quintessential girlboss: the founder of billion-dollar wellness company Radical, she’s equally admired for her business acumen as for her flawless skin and enviable Instagram presence. But behind her perfect veneer, Rhoda is riddled with an all-consuming desire to keep growing her empire, and fear that it could all be taken away from her. As she grows increasingly desperate to maintain her status and paranoid of the people surrounding her, she must question what lengths she’ll go to, to protect what she’s built.
Dani found Radical at a low point in her life, and it took her less than a month to sell her house, board a red-eye across the country, and apply for her dream job. When Rhoda hand-selects her for a prestigious new role, Dani is thrilled. But as she’s drawn into Rhoda’s inner circle, she begins to question Rhoda’s motives and suspect that something sinister may be going on behind Radical’s walls. And then she stumbles upon a story that might just prove her suspicions right once and for all. These tensions all come to a head on the night of Radical’s company party, when a shocking tragedy strikes the company. In the aftermath, the women of Radical will be forced to confront their loyalties and figure out what’s real, and what’s just snake oil.
From Kathy Wang, author of Family Trust: “A sharp, fun, and wickedly smart examination of female ambition and the constant pursuit of perfection, in a world where perfection is just another illusion to be sold.”
Kelsey Rae Dimberg is the author of Girl in the Rearview Mirror. She received an MFA from the University of San Francisco.
