Women's Fiction
Youβll not find six more remarkable characters: a cashier- turnedmotivational speaker, an undertaker with a toenail fetish, a girl wrapped in dreams, a man who communicates with whales, a garbage man with a peculiar sense of smell, and a Guinness Book of World Records representative. When a random holdup at a local grocery brings them together, their once separate lives intertwine in a humorous blend of lyricism, whimsy and wit. This is a rare book about what love does to us, how our lives are changed by being in loveβand the odd ways in which we sometimes behave. Up-and-coming novelist McNulty shows herself to be a writer to watch.
