According to her own complex moral calculations,Katie Carr has earned her affair. She's a doctor,after all,and doctors are decent people,and on top of that her husband David is the self-styled Angriest Man in Holloway.When David suddenly becomes good,however - properly, maddeningly,give-away-all-his-money good - Katie's sums no longer add up,and she is forced to ask herself some very hard questions.Nick Hornby's brilliant new novel offers a painfully funny account of modern marriage and parenthood and asks that most difficult of questions: what does it mean to be good?
Author's fourth novel.Hornby was recently (then 2001) awarded the E. M.Forster Award by the American Academy of Arts & Letters.
