Heartsick por Jessie Stephens
These stories seemed to me to perfectly capture essential truths about relationship breakdowns. The writing has a beautiful authenticity as far as I can tell from my experience. I will definitely be following this author to watch out for more.

Mostly depressing but realistic story of depression, with men behaving badly. The end seemed bit contrived, presumably for a commercial imperative

oldblack | Mar 19, 2024 | Three well written stories about relationship breakdowns. However, I cannot let go of this book’s non fiction classification status (OK - librarian disclaimer). I’m even annoyed to the extent I had to check the Dewey number - 306.73 (sexual relations/ dating behaviour). This is not non fiction - rather, here are stories based on real people. Fifteen pages of analysis at the back of the book do not justify this book’s inclusion on a NF shelf.
The front and back cover blurbs add even more to my angst: “remarkable longform journalism”, “a delight” and “grippingly told” - no, enough with the hype.
Let’s settle on - three very good short stories.… (más)
