Debra Adelaide’s new collection of short stories intricately maps both the sublime and the mundane landscape of ordinary lives. A distinguished but disillusioned British poet crosses the world on the promise of a prestigious literary festival only to find himself roughing it with an unlikely group of amateur poets; one man’s attempt to negotiate the Australian taxation system reads like a noir thriller; the minefield of internet dating artfully balances the absurd and dark side of the human psyche; a serious-minded administrator attempts to navigate the induction of a new, and rather perplexing, employee; and Letter to George Clooney opens a door into a world of terror and deprivation.
