Description

A dark comedy about two lifelong friends, one a struggling writer and the other a hapless entrepreneur, spirals into a profound story of faith and friendship. Steve Toltz's novel is inspired by his best friend's misfortunes and hopeless quest to win back his ex-wife. As Liam tries to make sense of Aldo's disasters, he finds himself drawn into a world of satire that subverts twenty-first-century society in all its hypocrisy and absurdity. With wit and originality, Toltz explores the artist's obligation to his muse and the complexities of faith and friendship. Sharp, witty, and engrossing, this novel is a thought-provoking exploration of fate, love, and the human condition.
