Graeme Simsion writes contemporary relationship fiction built around socially awkward protagonists, practical problem-solving and misunderstandings between emotional and logical ways of seeing the world. The Rosie Project follows genetics professor Don Tillman, who designs a detailed questionnaire to find a suitable wife but becomes involved with Rosie Jarman, whose unpredictability does not fit his system. The Rosie Effect and The Rosie Result continue the couple's life through marriage, parenthood and family questions. Simsion has also written other relationship-centred novels, often using humour and characters who approach ordinary social situations in unusually structured ways. His books are accessible, warm and dialogue-led, with comic situations arising from differences in communication rather than broad farce. The Rosie Project is the clearest entry point for Simsion's logic-versus-emotion romantic comedy, with the sequels extending the same characters into marriage and parenthood. Read more Less
