Beschreibung

'A smart, funny and surprisingly moving read for fans of Dolly Alderton' THE I PAPER<BR>'A commercial-literary gem for fans of Kiley Reid, Curtis Sittenfeld and Alison Espach' PANDORA SYKES<BR>'If you're honest, you'll admit that you've raised George or dated George or, worse, you are George' WASHINGTON POST<BR>'This book is a knockout' MARIA SEMPLE<BR>'An excellent novel...as convincing as it is moving' ADELLE WALDMAN<BR>'Perceptive, funny and tender' ALISON ESPACH<BR><BR>We all know a George.

He's the kind of guy who's brimming with potential but incapable of following through; he doesn't know if he's in love with his girlfriend, but he certainly likes having her around; he's distant from - but still reliant on - his mother; he swears he'll finish his novel one day. <BR><BR>Sure, you might find him disappointing. But no one is more disappointed in George than George himself. <BR><BR>As funny as it is astute and as singular as it is universal, The Book of George is a deft, unexpectedly moving never-coming-of-age tale and a portrait of one man, but also countless others.
