Barbara Novak hits The Big Apple of the early sixties with her new book DOWN WITH LOVE, a pre-feminist manifesto on saying "no" to love and "yes" to career, empowerment... and sex. As Barbara's revolutionary tome rockets to the top of the best-seller charts, she becomes the target of ace journalist / ladies man / man-about-town Catcher "Catch" Block, who is determined to prove the book a lie. Catch's best friend (and boss), the neurotic and lovesick Peter McMannus tries to rein in his star writer, all the time haplessly pursuing the object of his affections: Vikki Hiller, Barbara’s feisty editor. Vikki plays tough in a man's world and her brilliant promotional ideas propel "Down With Love" to the top of the best-seller lists. Meanwhile, Vikki's boss, publishing magnate Theodore Banner, doesn't let his old-fashioned ideas about a woman's place get in the way of DOWN WITH LOVE's huge success. Mistaken identities, frantic roundelays, startling revelations -- and ever changing perceptions aboaut love and sex -- are just a few of the surprises in store for Barbara, Catch, Peter and Vikki as they collide in a wild, witty, deliciously zany whirlwind of romance and fun.
