From his estranged father and strained relationship with Freddy to the reckoning he experiences in confronting his privilege, Arthur Less must eventually face his personal demons. We cannot, however, escape ourselves-even across deserts, bayous, and coastlines.

But nothing lasts: the death of an old lover and a sudden financial crisis has Less running away from his problems yet again as he accepts a series of literary gigs that send him on a zigzagging adventure across the US.
Less Is Lost by Andrew Sean Greer Book Summaryįor Arthur Less, life is going surprisingly well: he is a moderately accomplished novelist in a steady relationship with his partner, Freddy Pelu.
