About this product

Product Information

From the bestselling and Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Less comes Andrew Sean Greer's extraordinarily haunting love story The Confessions of Max Tivoli , told in the voice of a man who appears to age backwards. A Today Show Book Club Pick We are each the love of someone's life. So begins The Confessions of Max Tivoli , a heartbreaking love story with a narrator like no other. At his birth, Max's father declares him a "nisse," a creature of Danish myth, as his baby son has the external physical appearance of an old, dying creature. Max grows older like any child, but his physical age appears to go backward--on the outside a very old man, but inside still a fearful child. The story is told in three acts. First, young Max falls in love with a neighborhood girl, Alice, who ages as normally as any of us. Max, of course, does not; as a young man, he has an older man's body. But his curse is also his blessing: as he gets older, his body grows younger, so each successive time he finds his Alice, she does not recognize him. She takes him for a stranger, and Max is given another chance at love. Set against the historical backdrop of San Francisco at the turn of the twentieth century, Max's life and confessions question the very nature of time, of appearance and reality, and of love itself. A beautiful and daring feat of the imagination, Andrew Sean Greer's The Confessions of Max Tivoli reveals the world through the eyes of a "monster," a being who confounds the very certainties by which we live and in doing so embodies in extremis what it means to be human.

Personable and helpful seller. The ruana is very nice although the color I received is nothing like color shown. I will probably have to donate it because it does not fit - I can't even figure out how to put it on which is unusual. It's apparently this name brand as i've owned lots of this style and have never had a problem how to wear; just odd fitting.

  • Unusual novel, but worth the read

    This book was chosen by my ladies book club and if it hadn't been I would probably not have picked it up off the shelf. A little hard to get into initially, but once you do you will find it irresistible and difficult to put down. A great read and an interesting plot - what sort of mind thinks of such a story line?
