I continue to be amazed at the storytelling skills of Jonathan Tropper. He has a human insight unreached by most other writers. He has an umatched ability for empathy and a sparkling, detailed imagination. This particular book is so ripe for moviedom, and is reminiscent of the classic ensemble movies of the 80s, with a maturation upgrade for the characters. This book is almost a masterpiece. Its only flaw is that there's some overdrama here. Too many over-the-top incidents. If a story takes place in our reality, then it needs to be grounded there. This does make it a fun read, however, and I recommend all of Tropper's work. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

HTML:Jonathan Troppers novel The Book of Joe dazzled critics and readers alike with its heartfelt blend of humor and pathos. Now Tropper brings all thatand moreto an irresistible new novel. In Everything Changes, Tropper delivers a touching, wickedly funny new tale about love, loss, and the perils of a well-planned life. EVERYTHING CHANGES To all appearances, Zachary King is a man with luck on his side. A steady, well-paying job, a rent-free Manhattan apartment, and Hope, his stunning, blue-blooded fiance: smart, sexy, and completely out of his league. But as the wedding day looms, Zack finds himself haunted by the memory of his best friend, Rael, killed in a car wreck two years earlierand by his increasingly complicated feelings for Tamara, the beautiful widow Rael left behind. Then NormZacks freewheeling, Viagra-popping fatherresurfaces after a twenty-year absence, looking to make amends. Norms overbearing, often outrageous efforts to reestablish ties with his sons infuriate Zack, and yet, despite twenty years of bad blood, he finds something compelling in his fathers maniacal determination to transform his own life. Inspired by Norm, Zack boldly attempts to make some changes of his own, and the results are instantly calamitous. Soon fists are flying, his love life is a shambles, and his once carefully structured existence is spinning hopelessly out of control. Charged with intelligence and razor sharp wit, Everything Changes is at once hilarious, moving, sexy, and wisea work of transcendent storytelling from an exciting new talent.
