Overview: English lit student Ema has spent her entire life feeling like she’s not enough. Not the ideal daughter. Or student. Or athlete. She’s never been at home in her own body, always feeling too big or too small. Maybe that’s why she settles for men who only love her as little as she loves herself. She knows she hasn’t been the greatest friend to her besties, Gabija and Rytis, despite their unconditional love for her. And she’s certainly never been good enough for her childhood crush, Leo, the popular kid who’s forever felt out of reach. Until, suddenly, he isn’t.
Growing up together in the Soviet concrete tower blocks of Vilnius, Lithuania bonded the Asphalt Kids, as they’re known, in ways outsiders could never understand, and upon reconnecting as young adults, Leo realises his shared history with Ema has evolved into an all-too-tempting fascination. For Ema, it feels like a dream, even if it’s an affair. Even if it’s a dirty little secret. Even if it’s toxic. It’s still everything she’s ever wanted. How could she resist? But when adult life challenges Ema to finally make some hard decisions, her passion for art emerges as an unexpected priority—just as she discovers Leo isn’t the only one harbouring strong feelings for her. Now, as long-concealed truths come to light, Ema will have to make a choice between what she’s always wanted, and a future she never imagined.
