Fantastically funny and offbeat, Tepper Isn't Going Out is a novel about a seemingly straightforward man who, in his search for a quiet life and a beautiful parking spot, inadvertently attracts the attention of an entire city.

For Murray Tepper, it's not about the journey it's about the parking spot, and in New York City, spaces are much sought after. He hunts them down, parks, reads his newspaper and gleefully dismisses those anxious to nab his spot. Such strange behaviour soon attracts attention. Funny and offbeat, this cosmopolitan novel about a seemingly straightforward man who inadvertently attracts the attention of an entire city has already been a big success in the US, and this is its first UK publication.
