About this listen

'Seriously wise, seriously wonderful, seriously comic - your life will be richer for it' Katherine Heiny

Guido and Vicent - third cousins and best friends - spend their time lolling around and wondering who they will marry.

Then, one wet Sunday afternoon in a museum, Gudio meets Holly. Precise about everything, Holly knows what she likes: pressed sheets, tea on a tray - and now, Guido.

Soon after, Vincent falls for his misanthropic new colleague, Misty. She seems completely uninterested in love, until she agrees to go to dinner with Vincent.

This exquisitely well-written and much-beloved novel follows the two couples through courtship, arguments, wedding plans and other perils, as they find a way to be happy (almost) all the time.

Critic Reviews

Uplifting, funny, generous and perspicacious (especially about love), Happy all the Time is one of the most comforting, clever novels I know. (Samantha Ellis)
Laurie Colwin was the best kind of master: human and humorous, full of wisdom and love. When am I happy all the time? When I have a stack of Laurie Colwin books beside me (Emma Straub)

The cleverly curated new W&N Essentials range launches with Happy All The Time by Laurie Colwin. This sparkling and witty romantic comedy of manners... is like literary serotonin. (Charlotte Heathcote)
