商品簡介
A William Morrow Paperback Original
From Danny Wallace, British writer, producer, and award-winning journalist, comes his debut novel, a romantic comedy in the vein of Nick Hornby and David Nicholls, both sweet and sharp, about finding love, growing up, and making your own fate
Jason Priestley is in something of a rut. And no, not that Jason Priestley. This is the 32-year-old Jason Priestley who gave up his job as a teacher to pursue his journalistic dreams-writing snarky reviews of cheap restaurants for the free newspaper they give you on the train, which you take but don't read. He's living above a videogames shop, between a Polish newsagents and that place that everyone thinks is a brothel, but isn't. And now he's found out on Facebook that the girlfriend who left him is engaged.
Reflecting on his most recent Facebook status-"Jason Priestley is…eating soup"-Jason's beginning to think he needs a change. So when he notices a girl on the street struggling with an armload of packages, he surprises himself by moving to help her. She smiles an incredible smile, and there's something, a fleeting moment, what feels like a beginning. But her cab pulls away, the sense of possibility cruelly cut off-until Jason notices that she's dropped a disposable camera.
In the hands of his socially inept best friend Dev, what begins as a coincidence-based, half-joking idea become a full-fledged quest to find the woman of Jason's dreams. Exploring that most common question-What if?-the ensuing adventure is surprising, wonderfully tender, and often hilarious.
