Credete nellamore a prima vista? Paul Auster non ci crede. Anzi, lui non crede quasi a nulla.È un trentenne di taglia abbondante, che svolge un lavoro tedioso in un anonimo cubicolo e le cui doti riconosciute sono lumorismo pungente e il modo colorito con cui commenta il trascorrere della sua vita. I suoi migliori amici sono un cane con due zampe di nome Rotelle e una drag queen che sfiora il bipolarismo, Helena Handbasket. Ha un nemico giurato, il pappagallo omofobo di sua nonna, a cui si ripromette di tirare il collo, se lo insultera unaltra volta.Poi arriva Vince Taylor, che e il suo esatto opposto: sexy, sicuro di se, e piu stupido di una gallina. E, per qualche ragione misteriosa, Vince comincia a fargli il filo. Senza sosta. Sicuramente si stara prendendo gioco di Paul, perche non e possibile che un tipo cosi sia interessato a un perdente come lui.Ma dopo aver investito Vince con la propria auto senza volerlo, si intende, al massimo sarebbe stato un omicidio colposo Paul e obbligato a considerarlo con occhi diversi, e scopre che lunico ostacolo tra loro e rappresentato proprio da se stesso: un ostacolo quasi insormontabile. Quando Vince si trova ad affrontare un doloroso evento famigliare, Paul deve mettere da parte i propri dubbi per stare accanto alluomo che lo trova perfetto cosi come.
