An Abundance Of Katherines

$5.00

Trade paperback edition in good condition. Some wear to cover.

“Colin Singleton could no more stay cool than a blue whale could stay skinny or Bangladesh could stay rich.”

When it comes to relationships, Colin Singleton’s type happens to be girls named Katherine. And when it comes to girls named Katherione, Colin is always getting dumped. Nineteen times, to be exact.

On a road trip from home, this anagram-happy, washed-up child prodigy has ten thousand dollars in his pocket, a bloodthirsty feral hog on his trail, and an overweight, Judge Judy-loving best friend riding shotgun—but no Katherines. Colin is on a mission to prove The Theorem of Underlying Katherine Predictability, which he hopes will predict the future of any relationship, avenge Dumpees everywhere, and finally win him the girl.

Love, friendship, and a dead Austro-Hungarian archduke add up to surprising and heart-changing conclusions in this ingeniously layered comic novel about reinventing oneself.
