Fellow workers, there are some who need to understand that not all the plot lines of romantic attachment end in ever after.
Almost Lovers, a poetic book that is firmly in the scenery of contemporary romance, is a reflection on the less vocal forms of contact. There are five episodic stories each of which tells about a slow-burn path with an evaluation of missed opportunities, healing after heartbreak, and the tone of almost-love.
This we see:
The Letter I Never Sent: a summer love story that was halted by a sealed letter.
A Bench in December: two lonely people on a negotiation of healing on mutual silence.
The Girl at Table 9: prebooked table, small acts and silent longing.
Voicemails to No One: whispers to the night, that are relayed to someone in the darkness.
When the Bus Broke Down: a meeting with a broken-down truck on a highway of hope.
The readers who are interested in the emotionally evocative short fiction, the contemporary romance formula, and the tonal undertows of the bittersweet love will find this corpus appealing. And should you in your own life experience ever have known the pangs of a lost opportunity, the tug of slow-burn romance, or the sweet pain of near-love, you will find your mirror in these pages.
Listen to Almost Lovers to be reminded of the fact that the most significant relationships are exactly those that almost happen.
