Description

These eleven arresting, witty, and moving testimonies by acclaimed author Michael Parker state for the driving power of love, the measures to which we’ll visit declare it and follow it, the delusions we’ll drift to keep it going, the pain that goes part and parcel with it. And despite all the above, the absolute need of it, regardless of its effects. Whether it’s an university student undone by the child who leaves her, or the sweetheart intent on progressing aged ratings from senior school for his fan, or the spouse who discovers—in the food store—the lady he must have been with all along, every character, regardless of how off-track, really wants to think indebted and credit and repayment and producing the messy world—and the messy world of love—turn out nicely.
