Offering a wry, sharp, and unfailingly honest look at marital life (and strife), in 79 (very) short stories. Rhodes's deft use of language spares no emotion and leaves no romantic stone unturned--husbands, wives, lovers, and all combinations thereof are ripe for the picking (and choosing). The result is a collection of vignettes both funny and subtle, outrageous and poignant, equal parts absurd and all-too-familiar.
