Sam Masur and Sadie Green meet when he is in the hospital recuperating from an automobile accident, and she is visiting her sister who has cancer. They both love video games, and they play them whenever Sadie visits her sister. During college they meet again and create a hugely popular game. Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow describes Sam and Sadie’s relationship over 25 years-how the friendship changes and the people they on their journey.

Zevin’s novel is hugely popular and deservedly so. Its characters are well-drawn, decent people and the plot moves along at a good pace. Although it is not necessary to know anything about gaming to appreciate Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow, knowing even a little bit about that world makes this work of fiction even more enjoyable.
