Evan Daniels is a lovable mess and good company: smart, funny, earnest, sarcastic, unfocused. At thirty-two, he's in a dead-end job and knows it. Now that his girlfriend, Ellen, is accidentally pregnant, he wants to convince her to carry the pregnancy to term and to marry him. In his imagination-alternately a grand companion and an unruly tormentor-he brings to life his unborn daughter, whom he has named Helen, though he and Ellen don't know the child's sex. His fierce love for Ellen and for the unborn Helen is the only tool he has as he battles to forge a new path for himself and make himself worthy.
By turns funny, aching, and disarmingly honest, You Must Believe in Spring is a compelling novel that is both warm and satirical, and that captures life's heartfelt and tragic moments.
