For Miles—who has divorced his wife, is facing an uncertain career, and has lost his passion for living—the trip is a week-long opportunity to evaluate his past, his future, and himself.A raucous and surprising novel filled with wonderful details about wine, “Sideways” is also a thought provoking and funny book about men, women, and human relationships.
