"I'M PREGNANT!"
Steve Saraceni couldn't believe his ears. The love-'em-and-leave-'em
political lobbyist had always managed to come away from his
relationships with no hurt feelings and no strings attached. But now,
bright, beautiful Michelle Carey was standing in front of him saying
words that put fear into his bachelor heart--he was going to be a daddy!
At first Steve fought the idea, but soon his pocketful of smooth
one-liners started sounding shallow. Michelle made his mind turn to
putty and his heart beat faster, and suddenly he realized it was time to
reexamine his priorities--fast... nine months fast, to be exact. Now,
if he could only convince Michelle that he'd changed his wandering ways. Views: 13

A sparkling collection of award-winning short stories. Stylistically varied and enlivened by a wry, dark humour, this collection shows Paddy O'Reilly living up to the promise shown in her debut novel, The Factory. With subtlety and assurance, O'Reilly creates narrative voices and situations spanning a broad range of experience - an alien visitor who communicates in the language of romance, a woman waiting for her death, a case of confused identity, and the sour taste of relationships lost or abandoned. O'Reilly's characters are at once defiant and accepting, curious and bewildered. From Japan to suburban Australia, and onto a place where larger, odder things are possible, The End of the World plays with our perceptions of reality. Views: 12
