Résumé
A BEST BOOK OF THE SUMMER: New York Times • Town & Country • Los Angeles Times • Goodreads • LitHubFEATURED IN: People • A Cup of Joe • theSkimm • The Ezra Klein Show“Reading this book reminded me how much fun a novel can be.” ―Caro Claire Burke, author of YesteryearIn this timely and comedic take on ambition, consumerism, and the sticker price of privilege, an ad exec who bombs the biggest pitch of his career decides to forgo capitalism and live off the land of his suburban Connecticut home. Perfect for readers of Rufi Thorpe and Taffy Brodesser-Akner.Alan Anderson is a powerful advertising executive who has built a successful life and thriving business by making people buy stuff they don’t actually need.

She’s just a few positive affirmations, a swimming pool, and an exacting series of social tests away from finally becoming part of the elite women’s club, the Queen Annes, in their adopted town of Greenwich, Connecticut. As if contending with a daughter who wants to write plays (!) and another who has an unnatural empathy with animals isn’t enough to manage, she can only watch as Alan moves into their backyard playhouse to live off the land and―worse―spend time with the family. But instead of shocking the neighbors, Alan’s commitment to a less-is-more lifestyle seems to be catching on. Could everyone want what Alan’s not selling? Funny, s e x y, intelligent, and poignant, Alan Opts Out is the most ambitious novel to date by celebrated author Courtney Maum, acclaimed for her stories that tackle big, chewy subjects of our pos
