Fathermucker: A Funny and Heartrending Novel About a Stay-at-Home Dad and Suspected Infidelity

<p>“All kinds of funny—raucously, wickedly, sweetly, saucily, surprisingly, profanely funny…a wonderful novel.”<br />—Jess Walter, author of <em>The Financial Lives of the Poets</em></p><p>“Deft and funny, true and real. If you read one book this year, read this one.”<br />—Molly Jong-Fast, author of <em>The Social Climber’s Handbook </em></p><p>Senior editor at the online literary magazine <em>The Nervous Breakdown</em> and author of <em>Totally Killer</em>, author Greg Olear brings us a not-so-typical day in the life of stay-at-home dad Josh Lansky, juggling myriad fatherly responsibilities while dealing with the maddening realization that his  away-on-business wife just might be having an affair. <em>Fathermucker</em> is a sweet, heartrending, often hilarious look at family life from the dad’s perspective that Nick Hornby fans will most certainly respond to. As Jessica Anne Blau, author of <em>Drinking Closer to Home</em> and <em>The Summer of Naked Swim Parties</em> so insightfully points out, “Only a writer with the verve, daring, and great talent of Greg Olear could pull off a novel that deals with sippy cups, masturbation, autism spectrum disorder, affairs, and play-dates all at once.”<br /></p>
