Product Information

A NATIONAL BOOK CRITICS CIRCLE AWARD FINALIST - A NEW YORK TIMES TOP TEN BOOK OF THE YEAR - A VANITY FAIR BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR "Riveting and darkly funny and in all senses of the word, unclassifiable." - The New York Times A wild, humane, and hilarious meditation on post-privacy America--from the acclaimed author of Thrown Who are you? You are data about data. You are a map of connections--a culmination of everything you have ever posted, searched, emailed, liked, and followed. In this groundbreaking work of narrative nonfiction, Kerry Howley investigates the curious implications of living in the age of the indelible. Bottoms Up and the Devil Laughs tells the true story of intelligence specialist Reality Winner, a lone young woman who stuffs a state secret under her skirt and trusts the wrong people to help. After printing five pages of dangerous information she was never supposed to see, Winner finds herself at the mercy of forces more invasive than she could have possibly imagined. Following Winner's unlikely journey from rural Texas to a federal courtroom, Howley maps a hidden world, drawing in John Walker Lindh, Lady Gaga, Edward Snowden, a rescue dog named Outlaw Babyface Nelson, and a mother who will do whatever it takes to get her daughter out of jail. Howley's subjects face a challenge new to history: they are imprisoned by their past selves, trapped for as long as the Internet endures. A soap opera set in the deep state, Bottoms Up and the Devil Laughs is a free fall into a world where everything is recorded and nothing is sacred, from a singular writer unafraid to ask essential questions about the strangeness of modern life.

Reviews
"A taut and riveting tour behind the curtain of an America that is unknown to us, but in which we all live. Kerry Howley is an astute, funny, contemplative, and relentless guide whose eye misses nothing. I would follow her anywhere." --Melissa Febos, bestselling author of Girlhood and Body Work "I love this book because I can''t quite describe what it is. It bristles with the precise kind of strangeness that we live in but cannot name. Howley is one of the very best nonfiction writers working today and she is in peak form here. I''m jealous of her prose." --Chris Hayes, bestselling author of A Colony in a Nation "This is a work of profound moral and political importance, and an exhilarating evolution of an art form by one of our great contemporary writers. Howley meditates on freedom, privacy, storytelling, and the state, carefully following the threads of the War on Terror to the political upheavals of the present day. Not only is Bottoms Up and the Devil Laughs a necessary expansion and corrective to established narratives of decades of American overreach and cruelty, it is a beautiful, stylish, nuanced, and empathetic work of art, unlike any I''ve read before." --Lydia Kiesling, author of The Golden State "Kerry Howley sees it all. You may want to believe that the digital age has remade surveillance into a distant abstraction--all-seeing but also objective, supra-human, impersonal . Bottoms Up and the Devil Laughs is an unsparing map of that delusion, and of the sticky human spiderweb -- nodes and eyeballs, informants, and subjects -- in which we all now live, complicitly. A generational subject now has its generational masterwork." --David Wallace-Wells, bestselling author of The Uninhabitable Earth "In this fascinating dispatch from the height of the surveillance age, Howley ( Thrown ) expands on her New York magazine profile of Reality Winner, the intelligence specialist who leaked classified reports on Russia''s interference in the 2016 presidential election... Based on extensive interviews with Winner, her family, and her friends, and enriched by incisive character sketches of Edward Snowden, Chelsea Manning, and other whistleblowers, Howley reveals how the gravest threat to the national security state has become ''ideological, morally serious twentysomethings finding themselves as they sifted through secrets their younger selves had promised to keep.'' Witty, humane, and fiercely intelligent, this is a striking critique of a world intent on ''burying itself'' in information." --Publishers Weekly, starred "Howley manages to push beyond partisan hack work to lay bare the flaws or biases in everyone''s read on Reality [Winner]--be it the right or left, the Intercept or NSA, Winner''s family, her lawyers, or her prosecutors. She illustrates the ways in which the raw data of someone''s life can be culled into a story they didn''t know they had told... Howley''s capacity for incisive empathy extends to those whom most would dismiss as kooks. Just as narrators who purport to be reliable can be wrong, she suggests, those whom we write off as unreliable can, on some level, be right." --Tarpley Hitt, BookForum "A provocative look at the culture of intelligence and its subversions." -- Kirkus "In this wide-ranging, often chilling survey, Howley meditates on the ways in which data collected by U.S. government agencies can be used to invade and destroy the lives of citizens... Howley makes a convincing argument that Winner was convicted less for the leak than for misleading evidence from old social media posts and personal texts... and suggests that we all might be subject to danger from the same sort of posts, preserved without our knowledge in government databases." -- Booklist, "A taut and riveting tour behind the curtain of an America that is unknown to us, but in which we all live: the surveillance state. Kerry Howley is an astute, funny, contemplative, and relentless guide whose eye misses nothing.
