Book Review: Less a Novel by Andrew Sean Greer

This is a book that was given to me by a friend. She thought it would be a good read. The book is about a man named Arthur Less , a writer , who will soon turn 50 years old . He looks back on this life as he anxiously awaits the new reality of turning middle age .  Though the character's reflection on his life has been interesting, comical, and adventurously hopeful. I liked how Arthur Less seems to run away from his shortcomings in relationships and in his own writing career. He travels to a few countries as part of his book tour ; encountering a few awkward interactions with locals. In the end, as he travels to these countries, he really never forgets why he "flees" home. He realizes that he never can forget things as they follow you in memory and thought.  Source: Goodreads
