Angielski
Navigating the online and offline worlds of pairing up, this spiky collection of short stories delves deep, with dark humour, into what it takes to strap on a smile through thirty-something failure and make human connections in the modern age.
Gordon knows what Gabby wants but he hates to do what he's told; Chrissy stalks the internet to find what her fiancé wouldn't give her; three friends reunite during a heatwave and their evening gets better and better, until it doesn't...
While one woman wonders if passing strangers have a better sex-face than her boyfriend, another's birthday meal goes sour at the offer of no-strings dessert. In these relationship tales, many are burned by their pasts while scanning their horizons.
