From the creator and executive producer of the beloved and universally acclaimed television series BoJack Horseman, a fabulously off-beat collection of short stories about love--the best and worst thing in the universe
Written with all the scathing dark humor that is a hallmark of BoJack Horseman, Raphael Bob-Waksberg's stories will make readers laugh, weep, and shiver in uncomfortably delicious recognition. In "A Most Blessed and Auspicious Occasion," a young couple planning a wedding is forced to deal with interfering relatives dictating the appropriate number of ritual goat sacrifices. "Missed Connection--m4w" is the tragicomic tale of a pair of lonely commuters eternally failing to make that longed-for contact. The members of a rock band in "Up-and-Comers" discover they suddenly have superpowers--but only when they're drunk. And in "The Serial Monogamist's Guide to Important New York City Landmarks," a woman maps her history of romantic failures based on the places she and her significant others visited together.
Equally at home with the surreal and the painfully relatable (or both at once), Bob-Waksberg delivers a killer combination of humor, romance, whimsy, cultural commentary, and crushing emotional vulnerability. The resulting collection is a punchy, perfect bloody valentine.

Maybe if I could go back to the first time the Q switched over to the local R line for the weekend, I could have said, “Well, this is inconvenient,” but I couldn’t say it now, could I? I would kick myself for days after every time you sneezed—why hadn’t I said “Bless you”? That tiny gesture could have been enough to pivot us into a conversation, but here in stupid silence we sat.

Still, there were moments when I felt a connection. Someone would shout something crazy about Jesus and we’d immediately look at each other to register our reactions. A couple of teenagers would exit, holding hands, and we’d both think: Young love. (查看原文)

1. 关于书名：原书名“Someone who will love you in all your damaged glory”，意为“总会有人爱上受过伤/不完美的你”。鲍勃-瓦克斯伯格在接受采访时曾说，由于书名太长，所以大家经常会截取其中的一部分作为简称，有人会选择后半部分，而他则更喜欢前半部分。不过，通常情...

好多神奇的设定，但更喜欢那几篇平淡的小故事。每一篇都有一些句子一个moment觉得很受触动，似乎被挑中了心事。
