Manhattan, sabato sera, un locale punk. Nick, che ha appena finito di suonare con il suo gruppo, chiede a una sconosciuta di essere la sua ragazza per cinque minuti. Le chiede solo cinque minuti e un bacio. Quanto basta per farsi vedere dalla sua ex che incede sicura nel locale con il nuovo ragazzo. Ma anche quanto basta per precipitare con Norah in una notte lunghissima. Vagando in una New York piovosa e sfavillante di luci, tra tassisti scontrosi, buttafuori vestiti da conigliette, ingombranti ex fidanzati, un giubbotto che si chiama Salvatore e una vecchia auto di nome Jessie, Nick e Norah vivranno una notte indimenticabile, al ritmo di una colonna sonora fatta di clacson, cellulari squillanti e canzoni...

In the not-too-impossible-to-imagine future, a gay Jewish man has been elected president of the United States. Until the governor of one state decides that some election results in his state are invalid, awarding crucial votes to the other candidate, and his fellow party member. Thus is the inspiration for couple Jimmy and Duncan to lend their support to their candidate by deciding to take part in the rallies and protests. Along the way comes an exploration of their relationship, their politics, and their country, and sometimes, as they learn, it''s more about the journey than it is about reaching the destination. Only David Levithan could so masterfully and creatively weave together a plot that''s both parts political action and reaction, as well as a touching and insightfully-drawn teen love story."From the Hardcover edition."

How does one talk about love? yearning, n./adj. At the core of this desire is the belief that everything can be perfect. We are all beginners when it comes to love, from those tentative first dates to learning how to live with, or without, someone. But how does one describe love? How does one chart its delights and pleasures, its depths and desolations? Do we even have the right words to describe something that can be both utterly mundane and completely transcendent, pulling us out of our everyday lives and making us feel a part of something greater than ourselves? David Levithan's The Lover's Dictionary starts where we all once started - with the alphabet. Constructing the story of a relationship as a dictionary, Levithan explores the intimacies and workings of love through his nameless narrator, to paint a moving portrait of love through everyday words. Cleverly using the confines of language to provide an intimate window into the great events and quotidian trifles of being part of a couple, Levithan gives us an indelible and deeply moving portrait of love in our time. aberrant, adj. 'I don't normally do this kind of thing,' you said. 'Neither do I,' I assured you. And later it turned out we had both met people online before, and we had both slept with people on first dates before, and we had both found ourselves falling too fast before. But we comforted ourselves with what we really meant to say, which was: 'I don't normally feel this good about what I'm doing.' Measure the hope of that moment, that feeling. Everything else will be measured against it
