Romantic Comedy by Curtis Sittenfeld (Potentially Signed by the Author)

Life is (not) a Romantic Comedy...

With a series of heartbreaks under her belt, Sally Milz -- successful 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 romantically involved with beautiful, accomplished women. Sally channels her annoyance into a sketch, poking fun at this 'social rule' because, after all, the reverse never happens for women.

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.
