Written in lucid, trenchantly funny prose, Two Guys from Verona strips bare the cultural and moral universe of a suburb in our strange era.
"A bittersweet elegy for what, not too long ago, looked like a spanking new American version of the promised land."-The New York Times Book Review
"Two Guys from Verona may well emerge as The Great American Novel, or at any rate the great one at the turn of the millennium."-San Antonio Express News
"Kaplan's novel is a view of suburban life as David Lynch might imagine it: as banal as a mini-mall, yet seething with anxiety, eroticism and violence. Novels don't come any hipper than that."-The Baltimore Sun
"Like John Updike, James Kaplan knows the suburban doldrums of domestic tedium and the elaborate power games that pass for congenial male bonding in those towns."-The New York Observer
"Kaplan's marvelously supple and understated style . . . is the perfect vehicle for the suspense that charges this witty, sexy, and wise comedyof errors and correction."-Booklist (starred review)
James Kaplan sold his first short story to The New Yorker at twenty-three; he has been writing fiction, screenplays, and articles for over two decades. He is a contributing editor for New York magazine and TV Guide and a contributing writer for Premiere. He is also the author of the novel, Pearl's Progress.
