With a series of heartbreaks under her belt,Sally Milz - successful TV script writer for a legendary late-night TV comedy show - has long abandoned the search for love.
But when her friend and fellow writer begins to date a glamorous actress,he joins the growing club of interesting but average-looking men who get to date accomplished,beautiful women. Sally channels her annoyance into a sketch,poking fun at this'social rule'. The reverse never happens for a woman.
Then Sally meets Noah,a pop idol with a reputation for dating models. But this isn't a romantic comedy - it's real life. Would someone like him ever date someone like her
Skewering all our certainties about why we fall in love,Romantic Comedy is a witty and probing tale of how the heart will follow itself,no matter what anyone says. It is Curtis Sittenfeld at her most sharp,daring and compassionate best.
