Fiction | Coming of Age
From the beloved author of Memoirs of an Imaginary Friend
comes a wonderful new novel about a struggling man,
written entirely in lists.
- Daniel Mayrock
loves his wife Jill…more than anything.
- Dan quit
his job and opened a bookshop.
- Jill is ready to
have a baby.
- Dan is scared; the bookshop isn't
doing well. Financial crisis is imminent.
- Dan
hasn't told Jill about their financial trouble. He's
ashamed.
- Then Jill gets
pregnant.
This heartfelt story is about the
lengths one man will go to and the risks he will take to
save his family. But Dan doesn't just want to save his
failing bookstore and his family's finances—he wants to
become someone.
- Dan wants to do something
special.
- He's a man who is tired of feeling
ordinary.
- He's sick of feeling like a
failure.
- Of living in the shadow of his wife's
deceased first husband.
Dan is also an
obsessive list maker, and his story unfolds entirely in his
lists, which are brimming with Dan's hilarious sense of
humor, unique world-view, and deeply personal thoughts. When
read in full, his lists paint a picture of a man struggling
to be a man, a man who has reached a point where he's
willing to anything for the love (and soon-to-be new love)
of his life.
