Titles in This Set. The Rosie Project. The Rosie Effect. The Rosie Result. Product Details. Condition: Brand New. Format: Paperback. Publisher: Penguin. Genre: Contemporary Fiction / Romantic Comedy. Overview. Meet Don Tillman: brilliant geneticist, hopeless romantic and the most endearingly logical narrator in contemporary fiction. This paperback collection brings together all three novels in Graeme Simsion's beloved trilogy, following Don from his hilariously scientific search for a wife through marriage, fatherhood and the everyday chaos of family life. Warm, witty and quietly profound, these books have charmed millions of readers worldwide and remain a firm favourite for fans of smart romantic comedy, book clubs and anyone who loves a truly original leading man.. About the Books. The Rosie Project introduces Don Tillman, a thirty-nine-year-old genetics professor who has never made it to a second date. Convinced that love is simply a matching problem to be solved, Don designs the "Wife Project" — a rigorous questionnaire built to filter out unsuitable candidates. Then he meets Rosie Jarman, a sharp-tongued barmaid who fails almost every criterion on his list, yet somehow refuses to be filtered out.. The Rosie Effect picks up the story as Don and Rosie, now married and settled in New York, face an unplanned pregnancy. Determined to apply his usual logical rigour to fatherhood, Don's research methods land him in trouble with the law, his landlord and nearly his marriage, in a sequel that is every bit as funny and touching as the original.. The Rosie Result closes the trilogy a decade on, as Don and Rosie — now living in Melbourne with their son, Hudson — confront the possibility that Hudson may be on the autism spectrum, just like his father. Balancing academic controversy, parenthood and his own lifelong sense of not quite fitting in, Don must decide who really needs the help: his son, or himself.. Key Benefits.
