Description

"Hilarious... Statler's wit and charm are on full display."-Christopher Monks, editor of McSweeney's Internet Tendency

"A raunchy and fun supernatural comedy with a surprising amount of heart." -Kirkus Reviews

"Percy Jackson for adults!"-John Zilcosky, author of Kafka's Travels

From comedy writer and McSweeney's contributor Stephen Statler comes Gods of Glenhaven, a David Sedaris-meets-Tom Perotta, fast-paced, bighearted comedy about love, sex, death, and rock and roll-and everything that happens when our white-knuckle grip on life gets pried open against our will.

When Greek gods sweep into the quaint suburban town of Glenhaven to untangle their messy love lives, the helpless mortals don't stand a chance.

Christian Orr, struggling with work and erectile dysfunction after discovering his wife's infidelity, has just moved into what his daughter Francesca calls the Divorced Dads Apartment Complex. His high-powered attorney ex, Sloan, is jaded and restless, leaving precocious Francesca caught in the crosscurrents of change.

Enter Dionysus-"Dee"-the god of wine, sex, and questionable decisions, who shows up searching for his estranged wife Ari and their teenage son Maron. After three thousand years of Dee's antics, Ari has had enough. She's struck a deal with Zeus to start fresh-as a mortal suburban mom. And what's more normal than falling for a regular guy like Christian? If only Dee would stop tearing through Glenhaven in his quest to win her back.

Drunk on Dee's wine, the residents of Glenhaven form chanting covens in the woods, participate in ecstatic rituals, and experience divine revelations-all while Led Zeppelin's "Whole Lotta Love" loops faintly in the background of their lives.

Gods of Glenhaven is a hilarious, poignant, and confronting novel about the universal fears and follies of the human condition, and the joy and freedom we can experience by letting go.
