What is Good on Paper : a Novel about?

Is a new life possible? Because Shira Greene’s life hasn’t quite turned out as planned. She’s a single mom living with her daughter and her gay friend, Ahmad. Her PhD on Dante’s *Vita Nuova *hasn’t gotten her a job, and her career as a translator hasn’t exactly taken off either.But then she gets a call from a Nobel Prize-winning Italian poet who insists she’s the only one who can translate his newest book.Stunned, Shira realizes that—just like that— her life can change. She sees a new beginning beckoning: academic glory, demand for her translations, and even love (her good luck has made her feel more open to the entreaties of a neighborhood indie bookstore owner).There’s only one problem: It all hinges on the translation, and as Shira starts working on the** **exquisitely intricate passages of the poet’s book, she realizes that it may in fact be, well ... impossible to translate.A deft, funny, and big-hearted novel about second chances, *Good on Paper* is a grand novel of family, friendship, and possibility.*From the Hardcover edition.*words : 77995
