Bøger af John Dufresne

Diane and Livingston Moody have reached a critical moment in their childless marriage, and so have their friends, Vita and her philandering husband Finn, in theirs. The Moodys' marriage is trending toward disorder and dissolution. But Livingston thinks he has a remedy for what ails them. Meanwhile, Vita grows increasingly desperate in the face of Finn's apparent indifference. Into this marital turmoil, in his rented golf card, rides 45, a thrice-married expert on love and conjugal diplomacy, and the leader of what we once called the Free World. Part political satire, part absurdist rom-com, Liv & Di is a spirited inquiry into the nature of love and loss.
