Description
Read an exclusive section (George 13-21) of The Book of George. Meet George's family and see him off to college (even though he stopped studying in tenth grade, it still felt like a slight when he wasn’t accepted to a single Ivy). 😊
_____
We all know a George. He's the kind of guy who's brimming with potential but incapable of following through; he doesn't know if he's in love with his girlfriend, but he certainly likes having her around; he's distant from - but still reliant on - his mother; he swears he'll finish his novel one day.
Sure, you might find him disappointing. But no one is more disappointed in George than George himself.
As funny as it is astute and as singular as it is universal, The Book of George is a deft, unexpectedly moving never-coming-of-age for anyone who has ever been a reluctant mother, cleaner or therapist to a George of their own.
