Maybe Baby
A moving, funny and thought-provoking novel that challenges traditional notions of gender and family with love, loyalty and legacy at its heart.
He travels to London to take part in a groundbreaking medical trial. As things progress, he becomes caught in the complex hinge of three powerful desires: his loyalty to his late wife, a primal urge to be a father, and his knee-weakening attraction to Sadie, who has her own reasons to resist starting a family.
