About the book
Boris and Clementine are married. They work from home, watch old movies, and spend an inordinate amount of time looking out the window when they hear a strange noise in the yard. Sweet Bananas is the story of a year in their life together, told one day—and one chapter—at a time.
A brilliant novel from Emmy award winner Jack Pendarvis (Adventure Time), Sweet Bananas is ordinary yet ambitious, hilarious yet tender—and one of the truest love stories you’ll ever read.
