Reviews
"A preposterous true tale about one little man's journey into adulthood. I came for the adventures with the male centerfold, but I stayed for the break-your-heart portrait of a nuclear family teetering between enlightenment and core meltdown." -- Jill Soloway, creator of Transparent "This book is about a lot of things: fatherhood, religion, friendship, nostalgia and, of course, male nipples. It's got something for everyone. And best of all, it's told in Lou's voice: funny, touching and compelling. Doesn't even need a centerfold." -- A.J. Jacobs, New York Times bestselling author of The Year of Living Biblically "Hilarious, fun and surprisingly touching. You'll instantly fall in love with the Cove family and the surrounding cast of eccentric characters, right down to their smelly rabbit. Man of the Year has my vote." --Dan Marshall, author of Home is Burning "A classic coming-of-age story, beautifully written, consistently agreeable, and good-humored... the kind of book readers fall in love with." -- Booklist , Starred Review "Cove has a light touch and an eye for regional and temporal detail... Most who either recall or are curious about this free-loving period of history will find themselves satisfied by Cove's re-creation of his journey out of boyhood." -- Kirkus Reviews "Hilarious and poignant" -- People Magazine, "A preposterous true tale about one little man's journey into adulthood.

Synopsis
"Hilarious and poignant" -- People Magazine For one 1970's family, the center may not hold, but it certainly does fold. In 1978 Jimmy Carter mediates the Camp David Accords, Fleetwood Mac tops charts with Rumours , Starsky fights crime with Hutch, and twelve-year-old Lou Cove is uprooted from the Upper West Side of Manhattan to Salem, Massachusetts- a backwater town of witches, Puritans, and sea-captain wannabes. After his eighth move in a dozen years, Lou figures he should just resign himself to a teenage purgatory of tedious paper routes, school bullies, and unrequited lust for every girl he likes. Then one October morning an old friend of Lou's father, free-wheeling (and free-loving) Howie Gordon arrives at the Cove doorstep from California with his beautiful wife Carly. Howie is everything Lou wants to be: handsome as a movie star, built like a god and in possession of an unstoppable confidence. Then, over Thanksgiving dinner, Howie drops a bombshell. Holding up an issue of Playgirl Magazine, he flips to the center and there he is, Mr. November in all his natural glory. Howie has his eye on becoming the next Burt Reynolds, and a wild idea for how to do it: win Playgirl 's Man of the Year. And he knows just who should manage his campaign. As Lou and Howie canvas Salem for every vote in town - little old ladies at bridge club, the local town witch, construction workers on break and everyone in between - Lou is forced to juggle the perils of adolescence with the pursuit of Hollywood stardom. Man of the Year is the improbable true story of Lou's thirteenth year, one very unusual campaign, and the unexpected guest who changes everything.

    I am beyond pleased with my window card purchase from this seller. It came within a couple of days, was very well packaged and is as described, if not better. The value for the price was outstanding. I chatted with the seller prior to the sale and they were very accommodating. I highly recommend this seller.

    As soon as I ordered the item I noticed that I hadn't changed my address on eBay and that the item would be shipped to an old address. I contacted the Seller immediately asking him to change the address, which he did, even thoughtfully providing me a photo of the item with the correct address. The item was impeccably wrapped and arrived in excellent shape, as described, and in only a couple of days. Hats off to Greg Harris!
