The Rosie Effect
Autor Graeme Simsionen Limba Engleză Paperback – 20 iul 2015
Don sets about learning the protocols of becoming a father, but his unusual research style gets him into trouble with the law. Fortunately his best friend Gene is on hand to offer advice: he's left Claudia and moved in with Don and Rosie.
Picking up where "The Rosie Project" left off, "The Rosie Effect" is a fun, hilarious, and poignant read. "Don Tillman helps us believe in possibility, makes us proud to be human beings, and the bonus is this: he keeps us laughing like hell" (Matthew Quick, author of "The Silver Linings Playbook").

Wholly absorbing. Leaves you pining to be reunited with its characters every time you put it down - if you're able to
Don Tillman is the protagonist who keeps on giving. He is a gem, an empirical laser trained on human shortcomings, especially male ones, and even more especially his own. He is also utterly charming in his lack of guile and his belief in improvability . . . blissfully comic
Simsion is very smart at negotiating the line between a satire of the whole modern baby-rearing neurosis and drawing intriguing characters . . . this book is an intelligent piece of fun
Offers plenty more laugh-out-loud moments
Touching and entertaining
Quirky and sweetly funny, you will want to join the Don Tillman fan club all over again
Genuinely heartwarming, truly endearing, plenty of LOLs. You may end up a blubbing wreck
There is much to love in this comedy of errors
If you lovedThe Rosie Project, I don't see how you could fail to love this funny, poignant sparkler of a novel too
Equally heart-warming and hilarious
The hilarious follow-up toThe Rosie Project, one of the best novels I've read in ages. There's no sophomore slump here . . . It's a funny novel that also made me think about relationships. A sweet, entertaining, and thought-provoking book
Prime deck-chair material

Descriere
Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
Forty-one-year-old geneticist Don Tillman had never had a second date before he met Rosie.
Now, living in New York City, they have survived ten months and ten days of marriage, even if Don has had to sacrifice standardized meals and embrace unscheduled sex.
But then Rosie drops the mother of all bombshells. And Don must prepare for the biggest challenge of his previously ordered life - while dodging deportation, prosecution and professional disgrace.
Is Don Tillman ready to become the man he always dreamed of being? Or will he revert to his old ways and risk losing Rosie for ever?
