Description
About the Book
The author of The Easy Way Out presents "a very funny, exceptionally vivid first novel" (New York Times Book Review). When George is kicked out by his lover, Robert, he moves into the terminally disordered apartment of Nina--and into the most complicated relationship of his life.Book Synopsis
George and Nina seem like the perfect couple. They share a cozy, cluttered Brooklyn apartment, a taste for impromptu tuna casserole dinners, and a devotion to ballroom dancing lessons at Arthur Murray. They love each other. There's only one hitch: George is gay. And when Nina announces she's pregnant, things get especially complicated. Howard -- Nina's overbearing boyfriend and the baby's father -- wants marriage. Nina wants independence. George will do anything for a little unqualified affection, but is he ready to become an unwed surrogate dad? A touching and hilarious novel about love, friendship, and the many ways of making a family.Review Quotes
People Joyously comic...shimmers with hope, humor, and compassion.
