Eric Muller has been wanting to hack the girlfriend problem for half his life. As a teenage geek, he learned his present for programming computers - but his attempts to comprehend women only concur that he's better at writing code than connecting with human beings. Brilliant, neurotic, and lonely, Eric spends senior high school in the solitary glow of the screen. By his early 20s, Eric's talent has made him a Silicon Valley millionaire. He can coax girls into bed with ironic remarks and carefully timed intimacies, but hiding behind wit and empathy gets lonely, and he fears that love will be out of reach. So when Eric falls for the stunning, fiercely opinionated Maya Marcom, and she miraculously falls for him, too, he's in new territory. However the more he learns about his perfect girlfriend's unresolved past, the further Eric's obsessive mind spirals into confusion and doubt. Can he reconcile his dependence on order and logic with the mystery and chaos of love? This brilliant debut ushers Eric Muller - flawed, funny, irresistibly endearing - into the pantheon of unlikely heroes. With an unblinking eye for the absurdities and horrors of modern day life, Gabriel Roth gives us a hilarious and heartbreaking meditation on self consciousness, memory, and love.
