Sinopse: The smart, sweet, and hilarious first novel from the bestselling British humourist, filmmaker, comedian, writer and actor Danny Wallace
Jason Priestley is in something of a rut. And no, not that Jason Priestley. This is the 32-year-old Jason Priestley who gave up his job as a teacher to pursue his journalistic dreams--writing snarky reviews of cheap restaurants for the free newspaper they give you on the train, the one you take but don't read. He's living above a video-game shop, between a Polish news agent and that place that everyone thinks is a brothel but isn't. And now he's found out on Facebook that the girlfriend who left him is engaged.
Reflecting on his most recent Facebook status--"Jason Priestley is . . . eating soup"--Jason's beginning to think he needs a change. So when he notices a girl on the street struggling with an armload of packages, he surprises himself by offering to help her. She smiles an incredible smile, and there's something, a fleeting moment that feels like a beginning. But her cab pulls away, the sense of possibility cruelly cut off until Jason notices that she's dropped a disposable camera.
In the hands of his socially inept best friend, Dev, what begins as a far-fetched idea becomes a full-fledged quest to find the woman of Jason's dreams. Exploring that most common question--What if?--the ensuing adventure is surprising, tender and often hilarious.
