Review
Even better than One Day. ( The Times)
I was having to ration myself for fear of coming to the end too soon. ( Mail on Sunday)
I loved this book. Funny, sad, tender: for anyone who wants to know what happens after the Happy Ever After. (Jojo Moyes)
A literary and anthropological tour de force . . . astute and packed with brilliant observations, about life, art, culture and the infinite possibilities for human disappointment. I honestly can't imagine loving a novel much more. (Christina Patterson The Sunday Times)
The kind of book that reminds us what it means to be alive. ( Good Housekeeping)
US is a perfect book. ( Independent)

Book Description
The Man Booker Prize-longlisted follow-up to the multimillion-copy bestselling ONE DAY.
From the Back Cover
Douglas Petersen may be mild mannered, but behind his reserve lies a sense of humor that, against all odds, seduces beautiful Connie into a second date . . . and eventually into marriage. Now, almost three decades after their relationship first blossomed in London, they live more or less happily in the suburbs with their moody seventeen-year-old son, Albie.
Then Connie tells Douglas that she thinks she wants a divorce.
The timing couldn't be worse. Hoping to encourage her son's artistic interests, Connie has planned a monthlong tour of European capitals, a chance to experience the world's greatest works of art as a family, and she can't bring herself to cancel. Douglas is privately convinced that this landmark trip will rekindle the romance in the marriage, and may even help him to bond with Albie.
From the streets of Amsterdam to the famed museums of Paris, from the cafes of Venice to the beaches of Barcelona, Douglas's odyssey brings Europe to vivid life just as he experiences a powerful awakening of his own. Will this summer be his last as a husband, or the moment when he turns his marriage, and maybe even his whole life, around?
