Description

A fabulously off-beat collection of short stories about love—the best and worst thing in the universe—written by the creator of BoJack Horseman with his hallmark scathing dark humor

“Transcendent tragicomedy.... Prepare to be devastated and made whole again.” —The A.V. Club

Featuring:

• A young engaged couple forced to deal with interfering relatives dictating the appropriate number of ritual goat sacrifices for their wedding.

• A pair of lonely commuters who ride the subway in silence, forever, eternally failing to make that longed-for contact.

• A struggling employee at a theme park of U.S. presidents who discovers that love can’t be genetically modified.

And fifteen more tales of humor, romance, whimsy, cultural commentary, and crushing emotional vulnerability.
