Beschreibung

Will leads a carefree life at thirty-six, reveling in his independence and carefree existence. He finds himself at odds with societal expectations, especially the pressure to settle down and start a family. This raises intriguing questions about the nature of happiness and fulfillment, prompting him to challenge the perceptions around what it means to lead a meaningful life.

When Will's casual lifestyle is disrupted by a chance encounter with a peculiar boy named Marcus, his world begins to shift. Marcus, navigating his own struggles, finds an unlikely ally in Will. Their relationship unfolds with both humor and poignant moments, revealing how connections can blossom even in the most unexpected circumstances. Through their interactions, both characters discover new dimensions of themselves, leading them to confront their own fears and desires.

As their journey progresses, themes of friendship, responsibility, and the joys and challenges of parenthood emerge. Will learns that life doesn't always adhere to a prescribed path, and that genuine happiness can be found in embracing life's unpredictable turns.

'How cool was Will Freeman?'

Too cool! At thirty-six, he's as hip as a teenager. He's single, child-free, goes to the right clubs and knows which trainers to wear. He's also found a great way to score with women: attend single parents' groups full of available (and grateful) mothers, all hoping to meet a Nice Guy.

Which is how Will meets Marcus, the oldest twelve-year-old on the planet. Marcus is a bit strange: he listens to Joni Mitchell and Mozart, looks after his mum and has never owned a pair of trainers. But Marcus latches on to Will - and won't let go. Can Will teach Marcus how to grow up cool? And can Marcus help Will just to grow up?
