Synopsis

When Allison Pennybaker and Solomon Beneviste announce their engagement, trouble immediately breaks out: the Pennybakers plan a church wedding they can't afford, while Solomon's mother traces the Beneviste genealogy all the way back to the Spanish Inquisition. Both sides take determined, unwitting steps to promote a disaster. In darkly comic mode, Daniel Evan Weiss once again reveals profound truths about the human condition.

Media Reviews
?Brilliantly plotted, blackly funny horror story? Cosmopolitan ?A funny, dark and ultimately searing book that is both a pleasure to read and too painful to forget? Newsday ?Weiss? consistently light touch contrasts starkly with the scenes of horrifying torture used to illustrate past oppressions, yet perfectly conveys his point: that bitterly harking back to the ills of the past can be as damaging as forgetting them. Neat? Time Out
