Seller's Description:
Good in good dust jacket. Outline: -Hers began as a simple Cow meets Bull story: she Jane Goodall (no not the Jane Goodall) was the single overachieving prime-time talk show producer with her heart on the shelf; Ray was the young executive producer with the J. Crew good looks and it seemed a love life as lonely as Jane`s. They met for drinks fell in love (so she thought) and looked together for an apartment. Then suddenly inexplicably in only the third month of their post-copulatory phase Ray Brown was gone. Not gone gone but lost to a jungle of unreturned phone calls and unrequited love. When Jane suddenly homeless reluctantly moves in with Eddie Alden her swaggering womanizing coworker she finds herself in the belly of the beast itself--the alpha male--and discovers too that she`s not alone in the vast pasture of the brokenhearted. With a copy of Darwin`s Origin of Species in one hand and a notebook in the other Jane sets up base camp at Eddie`s and begins her research--on Eddie`s bizarre chase and flee rituals on the always unlucky pairings of her best friends David and Joan and on her own love affair with Ray--all in a desperate attempt to unlock the mysterious methods of the male animal. Soon Jane has stacks of theories and a budding career as a pseudonymous sexual behaviorist. But conclusions of course prove elusive as love itself and nothing is as simple as it seems in this whip smart hilariously funny and wonderfully wise debut novel about men women and the strange taxonomy of the human heart. --> Genre: Literary Fiction Modern & contemporary-> the publisher of this PAPERBACK book is Arrow Books Ltd The date of this copy is 1999 booksalvation have grade it as Good and it will be shipped from our UK warehouse This book is from the Series.
