New York Times best-selling author Howard Jacobson cemented his sterling literary reputation by winning the prestigious Man Booker Prize. In Zoo Time, Jacobson delivers the shrewdly observed and highly comedic story of one man, two women, and an interesting (to say the least) marital dynamic. When novelist Guy Ableman marries the alluring Vanessa, her equally alluring mother Poppy comes with the package. In a veritable tizzy, Guy considers a bold path- one that might just spark his greatest novel yet.
