About This Book

Arthur Less is a failed novelist who, in order to avoid his ex-boyfriend's wedding, accepts every invitation to travel abroad—to Mexico, Italy, Germany, Morocco, India, and Japan—assembling a journey around the world. A surprisingly tender and funny meditation on love, failure, and the passage of time.
