The second novel from Tom Perrotta, author of 'Little Children',
'Election' and 'The Abstinence Teacher'. Everything is going pretty
well for Dave Raymond. He's 31, but he still feels young. He's
playing guitar with the Wishbones, a New Jersey wedding band, and
while it isn't exactly the Big Time, it is music. He has a roof
over his head...well, it's his parents' roof, but they don't hassle
him much. Life isn't perfect. But it isn't bad. Not bad at all. But
then he has to blow it all by proposing to his girlfriend... One
man's treasure is another man's millstone. To Dave, the treasure in
question is Gretchen; a sexy, bohemian poet Dave meets when playing
at a wedding with his band. While Gretchen the poet plays 'the
bridesmaid', Dave plays 'the rock-star'. And suddenly, the
comfortable trajectory of his reality seems far less appealing.
