A Romantic Tragicomedy of Faith, Family, and Folly
Ross, twenty-three, isnt nearly as clever as he thinks he is. His brilliant idea to break up with his girlfriend, Lora Liamant, in an attempt to show her how terrible other men are and how empty life would be without him, has backfired spectacularly. Within weeks, he discovers shes moved on with the brother of a famous network TV actor. In the midst of his heartbreak, Rosss parents die tragicallyin a helicopter crash at an all-inclusive resort in Turks and Caicosleaving him with millions of dollars and custody over his teenage sister.
Traumatized, ruminating, and rich, Ross plots scheme after scheme to show Lora hes changed into a responsible adult, even as she shows no indication of wanting that. Everything he does seems to make matters worse, as his misguided mission of self-transformation only leads to Loras confusion and dismay.
Let Me Try Again is an electric picaresque charting a young Jewish mans spiral of neurotic pride and self-improvement within a culture that only caters to his worst impulses. Brimming with vitality and crackling with wit, Matthew Daviss dynamic debut illuminates the absurdities of twenty-first-century life with ecstatic flair.
