Reseña del editor
Inspired by the romantic misadventures she's witnessed in her own family, Cynthia Ceilan takes us jauntily through real-life stories about love: what demented things we do in the name of love, the wildly unusual choices people have made in their selection of a mate, and the joys and horrors of saying goodbye to a relationship that has long overstayed its welcome. In her fact-finding mission to write this collection, Cynthia Ceilan began in the bowels of her own family history, which always seemed unnecessarily shrouded in mystery. There she discovered a treasure trove of delightfully wicked secrets, which spurred her on to create this collection of true stories from around the world. Here's some of what she found: "Normal" is in the eye (and the bedsprings) of the beholder, especially when it comes to furries, objectophiles, and happily married conjoined twins. Same-sex marriage is illegal in most countries but a few are happy to let you marry your dog. You shouldn't be afraid to invite your crazy relatives to your wedding - unless your brothers are Scott, Erik, Aaron, Ryan, and Randall and they're currently out on bail. Weirdly Beloved offers comforting proof that there is never only one way to fall in love, or one way to be properly married, or one way to suffer the necessary indignities of love gone wrong.
Contraportada
The author of Thinning the Herd turns the spotlight on love and the crazy things we do in its name.
Inspired by the romantic misadventures she’s witnessed in her own family, Cynthia Ceilán takes us jauntily through real-life stories about love: what demented things we do in its name, the wildly unusual choices people make in their selection of a mate, and the joys and horrors of saying goodbye to a relationship that has long overstayed its welcome.
Here are some of the delightfully wicked secrets she reveals:
“Normal” is in the eye (and the bedsprings) of the beholder, especially when it comes to happily married conjoined twins—and the young man who falls in love with his guitar.
Many countries ban same-sex marriage, but a few are happy to let you marry your dog.
Condemned (male) homicidal maniacs get slews of marriage proposals from lovely ladies, but their female counterparts' only option is to marry each other.
Weirdly Beloved offers comforting proof that there is never only one way to fall in love, or one way to be properly married, or one way to suffer the indignities of love gone wrong.
