Graeme Simsion Libri

Don Tillman, trentanove anni, brillante professore di genetica, decide che è tempo di trovare una moglie. Così, con l'approccio scientifico con cui affronta ogni cosa, dà il via al Progetto moglie. Sedici pagine di questionario gli permetteranno di escludere le candidate inadatte: fumatrici, ritardatarie, schizzinose... Rosie Jarman è tutte queste cose. Ed è anche stranamente seducente, appassionata e intelligente. Ovviamente bocciata per il Progetto Moglie, al quale per altro non è interessata: infatti, vuole che Don, in quanto esperto di DNA, la aiuti a rintracciare il suo padre biologico. Mentre collaborano al Progetto padre, tra i due matura un rapporto improbabile, e Don sarà costretto ad affrontare la consapevolezza che, nonostante tutti gli sforzi scientifici, non si può trovare l'amore... perché è l'amore a trovarci.

Until ten years ago, geneticist Don Tillman had never had a second date. Then he developed The Wife Project and met Rosie, 'the world's most incompatible woman'. Now, having survived 3,653 days of marriage, Don's life-contentment graph, recently at its highest point, is curving downwards. Don and Rosie's ten-year-old son, Hudson, is having trouble at school: his teachers say he isn't fitting in with the other kids. Rosie is battling Judas at work, and Don is in hot water after the Genetics Lecture Outrage. For Don, learning to be a good parent as well as a good partner will require the help of friends old and new. It will mean letting Hudson make his way in the world, and grappling with difficult truths about his own identity. It will also mean opening a cocktail bar.

Internationally bestselling husband-and-wife writing team, Graeme Simsion and Anne Buist return with another smart, romantic adventure set on another of Europe's incredible pilgrimages. TWO STEPS ONWARD is the wise and witty follow-up to TWO STEPS FORWARD. It's about helping the people you love, and knowing when to let go. Figuring out what you really want in life. And seizing your chances, before it's too late. Three years after life got in the way of their long-distance relationship, Californian artist Zoe and English engineer Martin have an unexpected opportunity to reunite: a second chance to follow in the footsteps of pilgrims in Europe. This time, they won't be walking the famous Camino de Santiago to north-west Spain but the less-travelled Chemin d'Assise and Via Francigena to Rome, along the mountainous paths from rural France. And rather than each setting off solo, they will accompany Zoe's old friend Camille--who, despite her life-threatening illness, insists she will walk the whole 1000 miles to seek an audience with the Pope--and her not-so-ex-husband, Gilbert, who sees the trip as a gourmet tour. Then Bernhard, Martin's young nemesis from the previous trek, shows up, along with Martin's daughter, Sarah, who is having a quarter-life crisis and doesn't exactly hit it off with Zoe...

The internationally bestselling novel from the author of The Rosie Result - two misfits walk 2,000 km along the Camino to find themselves and, perhaps, each other.
