He's a smart kid, but socially awkward and not fitting in.Fortunately, Don's had a lifetime's experience of not fitting in. And he's going to share the solutions with Hudson.He'll need the help of old friends and new, lock horns with the education system, and face some big questions about himself.

Graeme Simsion nació en Nueva Zelanda y en la actualidad reside en Melbourne. Después de una exitosa carrera en el campo de la informática, en 1999 vendió su empresa y decidió dedicarse a escribir a tiempo completo. Desde entonces ha publicado narraciones breves y obras de teatro, y ha producido algunos cortos a partir de guiones propios.

Concebida originalmente como guión cinematográfico -con el que obtuvo el AWG/ Inception Award al Mejor Guión de Comedia Romántica-, El Proyecto Esposa, primera novela de Simsion, se convirtió en todo un fenómeno de ventas en Australia, e incluso antes de ser publicada ya le habían otorgado el Victorian Premier's Unpublished Manuscript Award (premio al manuscrito no publicado). Más tarde, el fenómeno adquirió dimensión global: la novela se tradujo a treinta idiomas y superó el millón de ejemplares vendidos en todo el mundo.
