‘Sparkling, sharply observing, insights delivered with a light touch that puts us in a good mood, however dark the comedy’ Spectator
Here are nineteen glittery new tales about the way we live now, as lovers, partners, children, parents. Or alone.
Stories of passion, desire, and necessary restraint;
of the near future, the recent past;
of old habits, new technology;
of won’t-be mothers and would-be fathers;
of houses, ancient and modern.
Stories, in fact, to enlighten us to the true and timeless nature of the human condition in this the new age of self-knowledge.
