› Find signed collectible books: 'The Book of Joe'
Right after high school, Joe Goffman left sleepy Bush Falls, Connecticut and never looked back. Then he wrote a novel savaging everything in town, a novel that became a national bestseller and a huge hit movie. Fifteen years later, Joe is struggling to avoid the sophomore slump with his next novel when he gets a call: his father's had a stroke, so it's back to Bush Falls for the town's most famous pariah. His brother avoids him, his former classmates beat him up, and the members of the book club just hurl their copies of Bush Falls at his house. But with the help of some old friends, Joe discovers that coming home isn't all badand that maybe the best things in life are second chances.
Fans of Nick Hornby and Jennifer Weiner will love this book, by turns howling funny, fiercely intelligent, and achingly poignant. As evidenced by The Book of Joe's success in both the foreign and movie markets, Jonathan Tropper has created a compelling, incredibly resonant story.

At 32, Zachary King seems to have it all - a beautiful fiancee, a well-paid job in import/export, a rent-free flat in Manhattan. As the wedding looms closer, though, Zach's charmed life begins to show a few cracks. First, that stubborn feeling that the careful friendship with his best friend's widow might just about to be taken one step too far. Then, the unwelcome appearance of Norm, his free-wheeling, Viagra-popping father, who is trying to mend his ways after having left the family in the lurch twenty years ago. And finally, an unpleasant reality-check after a visit to the doctor. All of a sudden, everything changes. Somewhere during the run-up to his wedding, Zach discovers that importing/exporting isn't all that it's cracked up to be and that a decision as momentous as marriage surely needs a lot more time...And can you really refuse your father in the face of such adversity? In just a few short days, Zach's life gets a radical make-over and when he comes out on the other side, he finds that it matters less what exactly life happens to throw at you and much more what you ultimately choose to make of it.

"Beautifully crafted", "Fantastically funny." "Compulsively readable." Jonathan Tropper has earned wild acclaim-and comparisons to Nick Hornby and Tom Perrottafor his biting humor and insightful portrayals of families in crisis and men behaving badly. Now the acclaimed author of The Book of Joe and Everything Changes tackles love, lust, and lost in the suburbsin a stunning novel that is by turns heartfelt and riotously funny.
Doug Parker is a widower at age twenty-nine, and in his quiet suburban town, that makes him something of a celebritythe object of sympathy, curiosity, and, in some cases, unbridled desire. But Doug has other things on his mind. First there's his sixteen year-old stepson, Russ: a once-sweet kid who now is getting into increasingly serious trouble on a daily basis. Then there are Doug's sisters: his bossy twin, Clair, who's just left he husband and moved in with Doug, determined to rouse him from his Grieving stupor. And Debbie, who's engaged to Doug's ex-best friend and manically determined to pull off the perfect wedding at any cost.
Soon Doug's entire nuclear family is in his face. And when he starts dipping his toes into the shark-infested waters of the second-time around dating scene, it isn't long before his new life is spinning hopelessly out of control, cutting a harrowing and often hilarious swath of sexual missteps and escalating chaos across the suburban landscape.
