International bestselling author

‘[A] poignant glimpse into human relationships – what it is to love and to be loved … The Best of Adam Sharp hits you right in the morals and leaves you thinking – how far would you go for a second chance?'
Books + Publishing

The Best of Adam Sharp is about growing old and feeling young, about happy times and sad memories, about staying together and drifting apart.

A novel about love, music and coming to terms with the past, from the author of the international bestseller The Rosie Project. On the cusp of 50, Adam Sharp has a loyal partner, earns a good income as an IT contractor and is the music-trivia expert at quiz nights. It’s the lifestyle he wanted, but something’s missing. Two decades ago, on the other side of the world, his part-time piano playing led him into a passionate relationship with Angelina Brown, who’d abandoned law studies to pursue her acting dream. She gave Adam a chance to make it something more than an affair – but he didn’t take it. And now he can’t shake off his nostalgia for what might have been. Then, out of nowhere, Angelina gets in touch. What does she want? Does Adam dare to live dangerously? How far will he go for a second chance?

‘While Simsion’s touch is delicate, this is a dark comedy of manners, an adult entertainment that extends the range of his first, more light-hearted book.’
