Publisher Notes

Brilliant, inventive, and wildly funny, this novel by the award-winning author of "Going After Cacciato, In the Lake of the Woods, " and "The Nuclear Age" tells the story of a man torn between two obsessions: the desperate need to win back his former wife and a craving to test his erotic charms on every woman he meets.

Media Reviews

"What it lacks in subtlety--and TOMCAT IN LOVE often opts for an antic, broad-brush style--it makes up in humour and in compassion found in unexpected places."
