June 14
7:00—8:00 pm
The Rosie Project
by Graeme Simsion
320 pages Genetics professor Don Tillman’s ordered, predictable life is thrown into chaos when love enters the
equation in this immensely enjoyable novel. Don
explains his difficulty empathizing with others, which he forthrightly says is a defining symptom of the
autism spectrum, as a result of his brain simply being wired differently. With his fortieth birthday approaching, he designs a questionnaire to find a compatible female life partner using his overriding devotion to logic. But he finds his quest competing with the
request of a woman to discover the identity of her
biological father.
Funny, touching, and hard to put down, The Rosie Project is certain to entertain even as readers delve into deep themes. For a book about a logic-based quest for love, it has a lot of heart. --Bridget Thoreson, Booklist
