Riassunto

Elliot Perlman has been acclaimed as a writer who takes us right to the heart of modern life - a world of uncertainty, downsizing, and sexual confusion. The Reasons I Won't Be Coming explores the turbulent lives of lovers, poets, lawyers, immigrants and murderers. An office worker discovers his lover's betrayal via e-mail. A woman hires a private detective and crawls through an urban underworld, searching for her brother. A man finds himself waking up, once again, beside the wrong person.
Elliot Perman's stories dissect the way we live now: the lost opportunities, the hopes, the fears, the vagaries of desire.
