Colin Singleton believes he is a washed-up child prodigy. To make matters worse, he has just been dumped by his most recent girlfriend (all of them have been named Katherine), and he's inconsolable. What better time for a road trip!
Love, friendship, and a dead Austro-Hungarian archduke add up to surprising and heart-changing conclusions in An Abundance of Katherines, a sharp, intelligent, and ingeniously layered comic novel about reinventing oneself full of mathematical problems, historical references, word puzzles, and footnotes.
“Laugh-out-loud funny, An Abundance of Katherines recounts a coming-of-age American road trip that is at once a satire of and a tribute to its many celebrated predecessors.” -- Horn Book
