Sideways

*Sideways* tells the story of two friends, Miles and Jack, embarking on one last adventure together to indulge in everything that makes being young and single great: pinot, golf, and bar-hopping. In the week leading up to Jack's wedding, the pair heads from Los Angeles to the Santa Ynez wine country. For Jack, the wine-tasting tour is his "Seven Days to D-Day," his final stretch of freedom. For Miles—who has divorced his wife, is facing an uncertain career, and has lost his zest for life—the trip is a weeklong opportunity to reflect on his past, his future, and himself.

*Sideways* is a raucous and surprising novel filled with wonderful details about wine, and it is also a thought-provoking and humorous book about men, women, and human relationships.
