商品簡介
Toni Graham's libidinous stories about single women in transition have a dark and eccentric comic underside. In this collection, she gives center stage to Jane, the most outlandish of the four 'Girls,' a zany, over-the-top, and sexy psychotherapist turned dog walker whose own life is falling apart.
In eleven interconnected stories that read as seamlessly as a novel, Jane steers full throttle at every challenge life throws in her path - divorce, dating, death of a partner, sexual anxiety, patients who can no longer care for themselves, a dead-end career, a gorgeous body now aging - and improvises her way through them with uneven success, ever reminded that meeting the right man is as likely as a proposal from a dead Elvis.
