'Ellipses: A Novel' describes the toxic mentorship between a young magazine writer and a high-powered beauty titan.
Life can be like one long ellipses, but for Vanessa Lawrence, “Ellipses” is the title of her first novel.
Needless to say, career choices, belonging and the thorniness of relationships in the digital age come into play. Inevitably, people will wonder, who “Ellipses” is about. Lawrence said, “It’s a protagonist. It’s really a coming-of-age story. It’s about a young magazine writer who is searching for agency and ends up in a toxic mentorship with a beauty executive who she meets at a party. It’s really just about a 32-year-old woman who is trying to figure out her life.
Lawrence, who started freelancing in the summer of 2021, applied to MFA programs and decided on the fiction track at Sarah Lawrence. But she ended up writing “Ellipses” beforehand and sold it after her first semester.to Dutton. That one centers on a beauty mogul who is confronting the potential fall of her career — and the lead-up to that point.
