~ Trade Paperback
A tight-knit group of friends from college (whose own kids are now heading off to college) discover what it means to finally grow up well after adulthood has set in . . .
Emma Straub packs wisdom, insight, and humor together in a satisfying book about neighbors and nosiness, ambition and pleasure, the excitement of youth, the shock of middle age, and the fact that our passions never go away, they just evolve and grow along with us.
"Straub serves up a perfect slice of the zeitgeist with Modern Lovers, an entertaining novel about former college bandmates raising their precocious children while grappling with marital tensions and midlife crises." -- People
