'If you've not yet encountered Elinor Lipman, then you're in for a treat' Daily Mail
No one writes like Elinor Lipman; her novels are heart-warming, life-affirming, funny, sharp and wise. And in The Way Men Act she turns her attention to small-town life, and to trying to fall in love when everyone is watching
Melinda is a florist. She doesn't want to be. She never intended to come home to Harrow, Massachusetts and, if she did, she planned to be married with a great job, not single and designing her former classmates' wedding bouquets. What's worse, why does she care so much that her sort-of friend Libby has set her sights on a fellow shopkeeper? She doesn t have a crush on handsome, chivalrous Dennis herself. Does she?
