Paperback. When his difficult mother is diagnosed with ALS, a sharp-witted yet sensitive artist reluctantly returns to his New Hampshire hometown - and all the ghosts he left behind.Fans of Andrew Sean Greer, Bryan Washington, and Jonathan Tropper will adore this outrageously funny, deeply touching, buoyant novel from the award-winning author of Leave Myself Behind.When his difficult mother is diagnosed with ALS, a sharp-witted yet sensitive artist reluctantly returns to his New Hampshire hometown - and all the ghosts he left behind.Fans of Andrew Sean Greer, Bryan Washington, and Jonathan Tropper will adore this outrageously funny, deeply touching, buoyant novel from the award-winning author of Leave Myself Behind.As it turns out, you can go home again. But sometimes, you really, really don't want to . . .Home, for Noah York, is Oakland, New Hampshire, the sleepy little town where Noah's mother, Virginia, had a psychotic breakdown and Noah got beaten to a pulp as a teenager. Then there were the good times-and Noah's not sure which ones are more painful to recall.Now thirty-seven and eking out a living as an artist in Providence, Rhode Island, Noah looks much the same-and swears just as colorfully-as he did in high school. Virginia has become a wildly successful poet who made him the subject of her most famous poem, "The Lost Soul," a label Noah will never live down. And J.D., the one who got away-because Noah stupidly drove him away-is in a loving marriage with a successful, attractive man whom Noah despises wholeheartedly.Is it any surprise Noah wishes he could ignore his mother's summons to come visit?But Virginia has shattering news to deliver, and a request he can't refuse. Soon, Noah will track down the sister and extended family he never knew existed, try to keep his kleptomaniac cousin out of jail, feud with a belligerent neighbor, confront J.D.'s jealous husband-and face J.D. himself, the ache from Noah's past that never fades. . . . All the while, contending with his brilliant, unpredictable mother. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
