Description: Product Description
TOM PERROTTA's thirtyish parents of young children are a varied and surprising bunch.  There's Todd, the handsome stay-at-home dad, dubbed "The Prom King" by the moms at the playground, and his wife, Kathy, a documentary filmmaker envious of the connection Todd has forged with their toddler son.  And there's Sarah, a lapsed feminist surprised to find she's become a typical wife in a traditional marriage, and her husband, Richard, who is becoming more and more involved with an internet fantasy life than with his own wife and child.
Reviews: Kristina (USA: NY) (2008/12/05):
I thoroughly enjoyed this book, and it was only when I watched the movie that I realized how thin the plot is. So thin, that the movie makers resorted to voice overs, trying desperately to capture the magic of Perrotta's voice.
Witty, clever, but the last paragraph pulls it all together with poignant insight.
