Description
A debut anthology of short fiction explores the ultimate human quest for love, understanding, and companionship, in a collection that includes such tales as "Beaching It," "Me and Paul," and "Bill," in which a trip to a flea market exposes the differences between a man and his fianc Winner of the 2007 Katharine Bakeless Nason Prize. Original. Steven Wingate's biting, bittersweet short stories of failed and flailing romances take place on the forgettable fringes of America: suburbia, motels, and the office place. With a deft touch and a keen awareness of how human desire can trump good sense, Wingate elevates these tales into something truly wonderful and sad.
