Every love story is unique. The reasons why people meet, why they have so much chemistry together, and why they sometimes fail to remain in love are different for every couple. And yet it is also true that all relationships have certain similarities. InTrysting, Emmanuelle Pagano celebrates both the original and the generic, giving us glimpses into nearly 300 different relationships of all kinds: romances between various ages, genders, and sexualities, comprising first dates, bitter memories, love at first sight, infidelities, dependencies, missed connections, divorces, and the first throes of passion. Almost anything can be a vehicle for Paganos imagination, from amnesia and sex to throat-clearing, sign language, earplugs, anti-depressants, arthritis, leather and PVC, comas, paint, hotels, floorboards, and showers. This potent mixture of aphorisms, anecdotes, and compact stories inspires us to know our own romances betterby catching glimpses of them in Paganos innumerable true-to-life fragments.
