‘The hapless protagonist of Greer’s prize-winning novel, Less, is now touring America’s heartlands… it’s huge fun. Greer’s delight in language and the comedy of incongruity is infectious’ Spectator For Arthur Less, life is going surprisingly well: he is a moderately accomplished novelist in a steady relationship with his partner, Freddy Pelu. But nothing lasts, and the death of an old lover and a sudden financial crisis have Less running away from his problems yet again as he accepts a series of literary gigs that send him on a zigzagging adventure across the US… ‘There is no better guide across America than Arthur Less, the “bad gay” whose engaging awkwardness and self-deprecation are tragically funny and hugely insightful’ Bonnie Garmus ‘Affecting and funny – so hysterical at times you may find yourself laughing aloud’ Daily Mail ‘An enjoyable encore… Read Less to fall in love and then pick up Less is Lost to rekindle a favourite old flame’ Irish Times
