A joyful freewheeling funny and profound new collection from 'one of the most inventive adventurous and accomplished fiction writers in the US today' (Lionel Shriver) For one woman a cross-country train ride becomes a parallel journey into the dark psyche of American manhood. An old man and his neighbour enter strike up a friendship that might a more sinister battle of wits than he first thinks. A man waiting for his wife in a bar on Valentine's Day is plagued by a stranger who claims to be clairvoyant. In electric prose T. C. Boyle explores myriad facets of society: greed and excess parenthood and responsibility the digital world and the way we understand our mortality. Roaming unrestrainedly through the present and near future he inhabits his characters' minds with a ventriloquist's flair skewering human motivations and revealing us to ourselves with empathy and wry humour.
