Explanation As Books How To Talk To A Widower

Doug Parker is a widower at age twenty-nine, and in his quiet suburban town, that makes him something of a celebrity—the object of sympathy, curiosity, and, in some cases, unbridled desire. But Doug has other things on his mind. First there's his sixteen year-old stepson, Russ: a once-sweet kid who now is getting into increasingly serious trouble on a daily basis. Then there are Doug's sisters: his bossy twin, Clair, who's just left he husband and moved in with Doug, determined to rouse him from his Grieving stupor. And Debbie, who's engaged to Doug's ex-best friend and manically determined to pull off the perfect wedding at any cost.

Soon Doug's entire nuclear family is in his face. And when he starts dipping his toes into the shark-infested waters of the second-time around dating scene, it isn't long before his new life is spinning hopelessly out of control, cutting a harrowing and often hilarious swath of sexual missteps and escalating chaos across the suburban landscape.

I don't know why it took me so long to get back to read another book by Jonathan Tropper. A couple of years back I read his latest book This Is Where I Leave You a couple years back and it was my favorite book of the year. There was something simply sizzling about Tropper's writing - razor sharp, witty, raw, funny, painful, astute... the exclamatory adjectives could just go on and on. I guess part of my fear was diluting that particular reading experience, but after a very informal online chat

I love Jonathan Tropper! I love how real his characters are, how easily you fall into his world and fall in love with his characters. It gives me hope that maybe mankind isn't all that bad. I'm so glad my coworker randomly bought his books then lent them to me (without even reading them first) because otherwise I might not even know about these books!He makes me laugh out loud, and I love his dialogue:We dont have twin telepathy.Of course we do, its just subtle, like...flesh-colored nail polish.

"How to Talk to a Widower" is my second book by Jonathan Tropper and it did not disappoint. Trust me, my expectations were high after "This is Where I Leave You." But Tropper delivered. He writes the most perfect and likeable beta males. I cannot help falling in love with his male protagonists. Doug isn't any different. He's so beautifully lost that it awakens the helper syndrome in me. A lot. This story has some similarities to "This is Where I Leave You" - for example the eccentric mother, the

This is the third Tropper book I've read in just as many weeks. I can't get enough. This book, like the other two I have read (This Is Where I Leave You and The Book of Joe) is swift, wry, funny, and flow with an ease that keeps you just wanting more. Tropper's characters evolve organically--before you know it, you're attached to each of them and standing on the sidelines cheering them on. This particular book was funnier, I thought, than the others I have read. Just when you thought Doug, the

This was a quick and easy read but not one that I will really remember. I could imagine this being made into a tv film..one that I would more than likely turn off 1/4 of the way in & decide to do some ironing instead...

Well this was nice. I admit to shedding a tear at the end, but I suspect that was just as much sleep deprivation together with life of the characters. I enjoyed it and it would be a goo beach read if someone needs one :)

I think we are all familiar with the stereotype of the so called "modern" writer: the kind of guy or girl who sits at Starbucks, smokes a Silk Cut (or a Djarum or other aromaticized poison if he or she is hip enough) and types away on a MacBook. The type of text that comes out is is either dick/chick lit, meaning witty novels about the complicated relationship between men and women, or some quasi post-modern bullshit which nobody understands and everybody praises for exactly that reason.
