A chance encounter prompts an ageing professor to regret a lifetime of wasted opportunities; a beautiful wife tests her husband by making herself hideous; for the love of a girl, a boy turns himself into a violoncello. Funny, magical and strange, in these seven short stories Dan Rhodes lays bare the pain and enchantment of love.
