This Too Can Be Yours by Beth Lisick

In a dozen connected short stories, Beth Lisick casts a cool eye on the lost souls and living dead of offices, nightclubs, shopping malls, and tidy homes. Pretentious Web designers are a dime a dozen in this world, boring everyone with their tales of vacations in Cuba and start-up IPOs. How is anybody supposed to breathe amidst all this hot air? In this wholly unpredictable collection of “tongue-in-chic” short stories, Lisick unveils a world of interrelatedness with its often incomprehensible coincidences.
