Meeting New People A Novel【電子書籍】[ Daniel M. Lavery ]
<p><strong>From the author of the national bestseller <em>Women’s Hotel</em>, the irresistible and wildly entertaining story of one woman contending with age and friendshipーa narrative that reads like an homage to Nora Ephron’s <em>Heartburn.</em></strong></p> <p>Fiftysomething, twice-divorced Barbara is at a crossroads. In the midst of her emotional uncertainty, she looks back on the dissolution of the nine best friendships of her life, in hopes of figuring out how to optimize finding her tenth, and hopefully last, best friend. Barbara is acerbic, opinionated, and wrong about many things, but she also doesn't shy away when she's at fault. The turning point of her predicament comes from Barbara’s choice, in friends, between (too-young) Caitlyn and the (unsuitable) Other Barbara. Will she repeat the exciting mistakes of the past, or will she try a new kind of mistake for a change? She feels like an out-of-season Scrooge who is unexpectedly, and all at once, surprised and entirely transformed by the possibility of joy.</p> <p>For readers who loved Bobby Finger's <em>The Old Place</em> and Elif Batuman's <em>Either/Or</em>, <em>Meeting New People</em> will feel like a long-lost companionーLavery at the height of his storytelling powers. It is an unforgettable novel from one of our most inventive and brilliant writers.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
