Story
The art of love is never a science.: Meet Don Tillman, a brilliant yet socially inept professor of genetics, who’s decided it’s time he found a wife. In the orderly, evidence-based manner with which Don approaches all things, he designs The Wife Project to find his perfect partner: a 16-page, scientifically valid survey to filter out the drinkers, the smokers, the late arrivers. Yet, Rosie Jarman possesses all these qualities and. Don easily disqualifies her as a suitable candidate (even if she is "quite intelligent for a barmaid").

I love this book and the way that it presented. It shows how we are all different in this world. Not everybody is able to empathise with all situations and love is different for many. I’d recommend this book to be read by any young adolescents whom are growing and reaching towards a world of many different people where love is hidden in the strangest of places.

A book which will appeal to the heart and soul of anybody born in Rhodesia
Reviewed: 03-06-20
I was born in Bulawayo.
I first heard about this book on BBC world book. I decided to search for it on audible and was surprised to find it.
After beginning the book, I found it so appealing and interesting that I could not put it down. It is seriously a book worth listening to for anybody who has any ties to Rhodesia now Zimbabwe.
I especially enjoyed the narrator who captured the the pure essence of this book and the place for which it was written.
