Under the Current - Paperback

by Jared Siler (Author), Cindy Barascout (Editor)

What happens when a man who seems to have it all finally stops running?

Under the Current is a gripping and timely novel about the men's mental health crisis hiding in plain sight. Meet Tristen Rhodes: a polished executive and successful entrepreneur in Silicon Valley who seems to have the perfect life. But beneath the surface, he's fighting a quiet war between who he truly is and who he believes he has to be.

From the foggy California coast to high-stakes boardrooms, Tristen is haunted by his father's fractured legacy, the crushing weight of impostor syndrome, and an inner voice that asks, "Is this your true self?" This is a profound story of personal transformation and the courage it takes to face the parts of ourselves that were never broken-just buried.

This powerful work of psychological fiction dives deep into the unseen struggles men face, challenging outdated ideas of masculinity and performative toughness.

Perfect for readers of contemporary literary fiction and anyone moved by stories of self-discovery and redemption. Under the Current is a must-read not only for men steering this path but also for the partners, friends, and loved ones who stand beside them.
