# Andrew Sean Greer

LESS is a love story about a failed novelist who accepts a series of invitations to half-baked literary events around the world to avoid attending his ex-boyfriend's wedding. Along the way, he almost falls in love, almost falls to his death, and encounters the last person on Earth he wants to face. Despite all the mishaps, missteps, misunderstandings, and mistakes, LESS is a scintillating satire of the American abroad, a rumination on time and the human heart, and a bittersweet romance of chances lost.
