Find Me, the sequel to CMBYN, is a frustrating and embarrassing book. It's embarrassing because in it, romantic salvation for an older straight man looks (as it so often seems to look in the minds of male novelists) like that man finding a woman young enough to be his daughter.

It's frustrating because in spite of this there are still pockets of lovely writing about the pull one particular person can have over us, the way the fear of a life unlived can loom over us, the feeling of time out of sync, & of threads of fate coming together in surprising ways

Still, my advice to fans of the novel CMBYN is to ignore Find Me and live with the delicious and painful ambiguity of that novel's ending.
