Introduction

(Harry Driscoll is living in New York City (if you call trying to survive on an editorial assistant's salary "living").

His education is Ivy League (but what good is it doing him?).

Harry Driscoll has a girl (although intercourse is out of the question).

And the other girls? They're not the problem. (The problem is, Harry Driscoll cannot allow himself to say the word "love.")
