Someone Who Will Love You in All Your Damaged Glory: Stories

Someone Who Will Love You in All Your Damaged Glory: Stories

From the creator of the beloved and universally acclaimed television seriesÂ BoJack Horseman, a fabulously off-beat collection of short stories about loveâ€”the best and worst thing in the universe.

â€œComplex, daring, emotional, and unique, with notes of melancholic brilliance and an aftertaste of subtle elation: it is hard to describe the writing of Raphael Bob-Waksberg without sounding like Frasier discussing wine.â€
â€”B. J. Novak, author ofÂ One More Thing

Written with all the scathing dark humor that is a hallmark of BoJack Horseman, Raphael Bob-Waksbergâ€™s stories will make you laugh, weep, and shiver in uncomfortably delicious recognition. In â€œA Most Blessed and Auspicious Occasion,â€ a young couple engaged to be married is forced to deal with interfering relatives dictating the appropriate number of ritual goat sacrifices for their wedding. â€œMissed Connectionâ€”m4wâ€ is the tragicomic tale of a pair of lonely commuters eternally failing to make that longed-for contact. And in â€œMore of the You That You Already Are,â€ a struggling employee at a theme park of dead presidents finds that love canâ€™t be genetically modified.

Equally at home with the surreal and the painfully relatable (and both at once), Bob-Waksberg delivers a killer combination of humor, romance, whimsy, cultural commentary, and crushing emotional vulnerability.
