AMOST ANTICIPATED BOOK OF THE YEAR: People, TIME, Esquire, Oprah Daily, Lit Hub, Seattle Times
\"No one writing in English is funnier or more charming than Andrew Greer. Every sentence in this novel sings.\" --David Sedaris, author of Happy-Go-Lucky
\"An absolute delight.\"--Elif Batuman, author of Either/Or
\"Such a sunny book.\"--Kate Atkinson, author of Shrines of Gaiety
An aspiring archivist determined to begin a \"serious\" life after an undistinguished undergraduate career takes up residence in the Italian countryside. Here, he becomes the all-purpose assistant to the Baronessa, known to her friends as Coco, a defiantly youthful and naturally flamboyant woman of ninety-two. Amid a chaotic and colorful milieu of gin-swilling princesses, incomprehensible handymen, roaming boarhunters, nuns, and other local wildlife, our young man does his best to catalog the villa\'s extensive collection of art and antiques--although he notices that things seem to go missing from right under his nose.
Despite himself, he tumbles into an affair with a married man, complicating his future plans considerably. And when the Baronessa loses someone close to her, he becomes an unwitting accomplice in the acceleration of Coco\'s great and final plan: to locate the love of her life and be reunited before it\'s too late. Told with the signature wit, charm, and humanity that made Less an international phenomenon, Villa Coco is a dazzling, sun-soaked ode to life itself, a meditation on how seriously we ought to take ourselves, and a bawdy Mediterranean ballad about becoming who we\'ve always wanted to be.
