I love Stephen McCauley's books, all of them! I've read every single thing he's ever written, and I'm looking forward to the next one. I was very ecstatic, to my surprise, to have found out by accident that he wrote a new one: Insignificant Others. Fortunately, I was traveling to Ecuador at the time - so I was relishing the idea of being trapped in a tight box in the sky, with nowhere to go and nothing to do but read this book.And I was not disappointed!!! rare foray into fiction for me. Narrated by a middle-aged gay man living in Boston and working in Human Resources, living with a man who's cheating on him, but also cheating himself with a bisexual guy who's married to a woman. Some fairly funny side characters such as his personal trainer. Not heavy on plot or scenery--most of the action is just office politics or snappy dialogue about relationships. Ideas about fidelity, honesty, aging play out in straightforward manner. I doubt it will be considered a classic or assigned in college English classes, but it was a quick and entertaining read.
