‘An extraordinary novel, a sustained and sophisticated comedy.’
Guardian
‘Richly comedic... like a WASPish version of Roth’s Portnoy’s Complaint... dangerously funny.’
Daily Express
‘O’Brien is at his best in this macabre black comedy... a dark, clever fable... extremely funny.’
Sunday Telegraph
‘A wonderful novel, laugh-out-loud funny.’
Washington Post

New York Post
In a tour de force of black comedy, award-winning novelist Tim O’Brien explores the battle of the sexes and creates a savage, startlingly inventive tale with a memorably maddening hero, a modern-day Don Juan who embodies the desires and bewilderment of men everywhere.
Pompous, vain, shallow, inconsiderate, untrustworthy, fickle... linguistics professor Thomas ‘Tomcat’ Chippering is a man much like any other. But when his serial flirting finally drives his wife into the arms of a Florida tycoon, it is more than his fragile pride can stand, and he sets off in pursuit, with vengeance on his mind...
