From the Booker Prize longlisted author of The Wall, comes his first novel in eight years.

What if the year's most talked about TV show was all about your marriage?

Kate, thirty years into her marriage, has a seemingly idyllic metropolitan, North London life.
Phoebe, a young screenwriter, is the creator of the year's hit TV show, Cheating.

When Kate's world takes a darker turn, she thinks she sees details and intimacies in the show that only she and her husband Jack could possibly have known. But who has betrayed who? Who gets to tell whose story?

A black comedy of resentment and entitlement, Look What You Made Me Do is the story of two very different women from two very different generations, heading toward a battle only one of them can win.©2026 John Lanchester (P)2026 W.

I was expecting a wider social canvas than this war between boomers andjmillennials. it's hard to take sides between the equally self absorbed and superficial protagonists. But you don't have to - Just go along for the ride and enjoy the sharp dialogue, humour, some tremendous set pieces [including a wonderful rant about Otalengi) and an engaging narration. there are some plot twists, though eventually you can see them coming.

I’ve been listening to this book while I’ve been outside gardening and, for a while, it was my sneaky pleasure, go to fix. Absolutely brilliant. I’ve recommended this to my friends and am voraciously gobbling up the author’s other titles.

Compelling listen

Very different from The Wall. An initially witty and observant tale starts off as a commentary about long marriages but slides unpredictably into a revengeful generational tale. Read this!

Amazing.

The author has a sharp eye for observation and describes with poignant detail the collisions between the dramatis personae in this compact and clever book.

To say much more would spoil the reader’s enjoyment of all the ingenious plot twists and layers which lie ahead.

Superb narration. If only someone would publish an audiobook of The Debt to Pleasure by the same author: one of the best novels I have ever read.

Fabulously crafted novel

Eight years in the making but worth it. A very clever plot which builds slowly like a good detective story offering you clues. Not an endearing set of characters but so well portrayed through first person reported thinking. Listened to it far too quickly. enjoy Jack's diatribe on chefs made me laugh out loud but maybe I just needed someone who agreed with me and could voice my views so beautifully.
Clever and enjoyable. Two narrators the right choice..
