The Private Sector

THE PRIVATE SECTOR, set at a corporate training retreat for an elite hedge fund, is a tragicomedy of thwarted ambitions, lopsided romances, and emotional sabotage. As four brilliant new hires and their mercurial training coordinator negotiate the dusky backwoods, resentments burble, libidos stir, and the hidden last rumbles of prolonged adolescence come to light. It’s a tale of twenty-first century lost boys, loaded with cash and haunted by half-formed morality, a contained epic of bean-cooking, name-dropping, tongue-kissing, campfire resentment, and loud sex.
