Less by Andrew Sean Greer


Using the age-old excuse of “I have to work” to skip out of an invitation to his ex-boyfriend’s wedding, we follow Arthur Less as he attends as many literary events—some obscure, others questionable—as he can possibly fit in until the wedding date passes and he is free to move forward. Slapstick funny and touching at the same time, we follow our bumbling hero around the world until, in an attempt to start over, he ends up where he began and finds the truth cannot be outrun.
