The Family Man by Elinor Lipman


I have never been disappointed with a book written by this author, and Family Man fits the bill! Anyone who enjoys books set in New York City will enjoy this story. Mrs. Lipman knows how to make her characters jump off the page and seem real. I was immediately involved with the main character Henry, a gay man who, after divorce, reunites with his now adult daughter, Thalia. The book was quite humorous and the supporting characters were full of personality. If you have not read anything by this author, run to the library!
