A dramatic meditation on love both fleeting & everlasting, ' Adverbs' is a serious work of fiction by one of today's most innovative voices. ' Adverbs' marks the return of Daniel Handler to adult fiction as he tackles life's most complicated & compelling noun: love. In a series of intersecting narratives that explore variations of that ineffable feeling, Handler crafts a moving & shifting story exploring the frustrating glory of this most troublesome of emotions.

' Love was in the air, so both of us walked through love on our way to the corner. We breathed it in, particularly me.' ...
