Overview

When it comes to love, some people need a world of help... When you've been dumped at the altar and forced to share a series of honeymoon suites with your brother, it's fair to say you could learn a thing or two about love. That's what Franz Wisner sets out to do in How the World Makes Love --traveling to far flung locales with a mission: to glean the planet's most important love lessons and see if they can rescue him from the ruins of his own love life. Uproarious stays on four continents bring Wisner new wisdom but he still searches for the secret to his own romantic happiness. But after months on the road, one disastrous date with a Los Angeles actress and single mom keeps popping into his head. Could it be that while researching what the world knows about love, Wisner missed a bigger truth: that something unplanned and implausible could actually make him happy? Funny, tender, and studded with observations about love from around the planet, How the World Makes Love is witty and wise escape reading.
