Publisher Description

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.
