À propos de ce contenu audio
A modern classic first published in 1978 that is as much a sophisticated romantic comedy about the love between two partners as it is a novel about the powerful bonds shared by family members, friends, colleagues and confidants.
"A funny, loving, celebratory book in which everything is perfect." —The Boston Globe
Guido and Vincent, best friends (and third cousins), aren’t expecting to fall head-over-heels in love, but that is exactly what happens. Guido is smitten with Holly, a dazzling young woman who chafes at the idea of complacency, while Vincent falls for Misty, a work colleague with an acerbic sense of humor who seems as uninterested in romance as she is in Vincent (at first). In the months that follow, both couples will experience the rituals of courtship, jealousy, estrangement, family entanglements, and other perils of the heart as they try to find love in spite of themselves.
Colwin is a master of portraying the messiness of life: here, in hilarious and endearing prose, she follows these two improbable pairs, and their families, as they navigate and ultimately find happiness together—not all the time, but for most of it.
With a foreword by Katherine Heiny, author of Early Morning Riser.

“A jewel of romantic comedy. . . . A comedy of manners that reminds us that manners are comic and should be enjoyed as such. . . . This giddy courtship novel features Misty Berkowitz, Colwin’s most memorable creation — think Larry David, but with a secretly vulnerable, generous heart.” —The New York Times
"Shimmering, funny. It made everything in my life seem a whole lot better." —Cosmopolitan
"A pleasure ... endless surprises and ultimately boundless joy ... It would be difficult not to enjoy it all." —The New Yorker
