Andrew Sean Greer

Ovaj urnebesan, dirljiv i satiričan roman osvojio je prestižnu Pulitzerovu nagradu, čime se odala počast Greerovoj nevjerojatnoj vještini pisanja te ogrinalnosti priče.

Osrednji ste pisac na pragu pedesetog rođendana. Poštom vam stigne pozivnica za vjenčanje: vaš se bivši partner, s kojim ste bili devet godina, zaručio. Ovaj poziv ne možete prihvatiti (bilo bi to suviše neugodno) ni odbiti (ne možete priznati poraz). Vaš je radni stol zasut nizom neprivlačnih pozivnica na književna događanja diljem svijeta.

PITANJE: Kako šmugnuti iz grada?

ODGOVOR: Pristanite na sve!

Tako počinje grozničava pustolovina koja će Arthura Lessa odvesti u Meksiko, Italiju, Njemačku, Maroko, Indiju i Japan, i izbaviti ga od svih nedaća s kojima se ne želi suočiti. Što bi moglo poći po zlu?

Pa, Arthur će se gotovo zaljubiti u Parizu, zamalo poginuti u Berlinu, jedva izbjeći saharsku oluju, slučajno postati jedini pisac u kršćanskoj koloniji u Južnoj Indiji i uraniti na cvjetanje japanskih trešanja. Sukobit će se s obožavateljima znanstvene fantastike, zaluđenim akademicima, starletama, liječnicima, bivšim ljubavima…

Usto će navršiti pedeset godina. Njegova će druga životna faza ostati iza njega. Morat će napustiti svoju prvu ljubav i pripremiti se za zadnju.
