内容简介 · · · · · · The bestselling writer who took us on a cross-country journey to reveal his long love affair with chocolate in Candyfreak returns with his second accomplished short-story collection. Once again he has produced a funny, bracing, sometimes shocking, always imaginative collection of stories and characters: a young magazine editor enduring a bizarre blind date; a couple who are sure that they have been given implants by space aliens; a young boy desperate to please his father with his baseball prowess, who ends up fatally wounding another boy during a game; a creative-writing teacher struggling to resist his seductive student. With tremendous heart and an unmatchable wit, Almond proves-- as he did with the acclaimed My Life in Heavy Metaland the bestselling Candyfreak-- to be one of the most original writers of our time.
