Almost Romance: A Memoir

Humorous memoir about the unpredictability of love.

If you love tales of serendipity and romance mixed with a healthy dose of humor, Nancy Balbirer's "Almost Romance" could be your next favorite read. Imagine sitting with a friend who's telling you their most hilarious dating mishaps and heartwarming love story—it's raw, real, and it reminds us that sometimes, love happens when and where we least expect it, regardless of age. Plus, there's something quite magical about finding connection amidst the chaos of city life, Hollywood influences, and the fateful turns of almosts into reality.

Description

Finding love is all a matter of timing in a surprising, complicated, and funny memoir by the author of A Marriage in Dog Years. When a mysterious woman summons Nancy Balbirer to a Russian restaurant in New York City, the near stranger’s shocking purple hair and even more shocking news send Balbirer simultaneously reeling back to her past and hurtling toward a future that, at almost fifty years old, she never dreamed possible. This romantic-comedy memoir tells the true story of how a pack of Hollywood television writers and the denizens of a fabled but cursed Manhattan apartment building helped the author and one of her best friends turn a thirty-two-year almost romance into a real one. Witty and heartfelt, Nancy Balbirer’s sublime memoir proves that love is possible anywhere, anytime, and at any age.
