The Object of My Affection by Stephen McCauley  FIRST EDITION • FIRST PRINTING [1987] SIMON & SCHUSTER Hardcover with dust jacket in very good condition. Dust jacket has some visible wear; small chipped edge on front of jacket.  Looks great in a new HQ jacket protector. Book itself is excellent; clean tight boards.  Reads like new.  George and Nina seem like the perfect couple. They share a cozy, cluttered Brooklyn apartment, a taste for impromptu tuna casserole dinners, and a devotion to ballroom dancing lessons at Arthur Murray. They love each other. There's only one hitch... George is gay. And when Nina announces she's pregnant, things get especially complicated. Howard -- Nina's overbearing boyfriend and the baby's father -- wants marriage. Nina wants independence. George will do anything for a little unqualified affection, but is he ready to become an unwed surrogate dad? A touching and hilarious novel about love, friendship, and the many ways of making a family.
