Synopsis

"This is the story of a successful young couple living in Austin, Texas, whose personal histories, national and ethnic identities, and aptitudes and ambitions have brought them to this booming city in this fast time, to the music and tech industries, and to one another. New and old successes and family ties and responsibilities put Rob and Maria to the test concerning what they want in life and in marriage and force them to reckon with the adults and spouses their happy modern lives have made them. Witty and heartfelt, Two Twins is an exploration of looming millennial middle age, how our personal anthropologies inform what we want from life, and the kinds of love we’re capable of offering and the kinds we’re apt to receive."
