Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Johnny Tricorn (aka John Tricornio, aka an anxious romantic string bean living in L.A.) is in love with Betty Velasquez. He’s the movie critic at Angel City Beat. She’s the editor-in-chief. They’ve been together for three years and are headed toward marriage when he books an interview with the princess of Angora, a tiny nation mired in a years-long conflict with its neighbor, Andorra. The interview sets in motion a chance encounter with a local celebrity who also happens to be Johnny’s abusive ex, Carolina. A clinical narcissist, Carolina threatens to sabotage Johnny’s relationship with Betty — and destroy Betty’s career.
Set over the course of two high-stakes days, The Man Who Would Be Man Enough for Betty Velasquez is a poignant, hilarious portrait of a man’s struggle to come to terms with his past and embrace his future.
