Romaanit
The "hilarious, poignant, and intoxicating" wine novel that's the basis for the comedy-drama road movie starring Paul Giamatti and Thomas Haden Church (Jay McInerney). Sideways is the story of two friends—Miles and Jack—going away together for the last time to steep themselves in everything that makes it good to be young and single: pinot, putting, and prowling bars. In the week before Jack plans to marry, the pair heads out from Los Angeles to the Santa Ynez wine country. For Jack, the tasting tour is Seven Days to D-Day, his final stretch of freedom. For Miles—who has divorced his wife, is facing an uncertain career and has lost his passion for living—the trip is a weeklong opportunity to evaluate his past, his future and himself. "A buddy novel in the cinematic vein of Swingers . . . Pickett plays the sex-and-the-single man angle for all its worth here, nodding occasionally at such larger themes as friendship and romance. Call it Nick Hornby lite." —Booklist "A fresh take . . . credit screenwriter Pickett for coming up with a debut that goes some distance . . . Skillful work about a friendship between two ultimately likeable guys." —Kirkus Reviews "[A] lively debut . . . Pickett takes his readers on a jolly ride." —Publishers Weekly
