What is most intriguing about this book is the writing style. The writing style was very beautiful, it's flash fiction but it felt more like those free-verse poems. The story of this novel is about a guy whose life gets flipped around when a boy who claims that he is his son walks into his life. The son's mother was a woman he had a one-night stand with, who recently passed away, hence is why the boy ends up looking for him. He seems to be an unfaithful man because he has affairs with another woman while he is in one relationship. All of the women he knew are called by their description and not by their names like 'the Asian girl', 'the white girl', and 'the wifely woman'. The plot centers around the man's life on his decision, should he get rid of all the other women and be a father, and keep the job that he probably hates. He always seems to be so confused about what to do, because he's so used to aimless deeds. He soon gives up everything just for the boy, whom he slowly grows affection for despite misunderstanding his odd behaviors and shares his culture with him, the father is a Korean American and the boy is half white and Korean and seems to have no connection with his Korean culture. The man grows connected to the boy after spending more time with him.
