Ultimate Satisfaction Guaranteed:(...and other stories): 2nd Edition (Collected Stories from R.M.Foster) - Tapa blanda

Ultimate Satisfaction Guaranteed (Paperback)

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. JILL'S SMILE - is a concise study of self-perception, emotional labour, and the quiet reclaiming of dignity. The story follows Jill, a middle-aged woman enjoying unexpected success in a second career as a fashion model. During a beach photo shoot, she responds easily to the photographer's request to smile, buoyed by the warmth of the setting and her own growing confidence. The event is professionally successful: designers praise the organisation, and Jill is singled out for her poise and beauty, affirming her sense of achievement. JORDAN WILL NOW SPEAK follows Jordan Bland, a learning-disabled boy in a marginalised class at a special school, whose growing sense of purpose is awakened by a new geography teacher, Miss Nancy Clark. The story traces Jordan's emotional journey from quiet infatuation and fragile self-worth toward confidence, agency, and belief that his voice can matter in a threatened world. ULTIMATE SATISFACTION GUARANTEED follows a travelling couple, Jo and an unnamed narrator, who spend nights in their campervan while touring towns to fulfil bespoke technology orders. Their business supplies cars fitted with "Genuine People Personalities" (GPPs): advanced SIM cards that secure vehicles by voice recognition and, increasingly, provide spoken feedback modelled on human personalities. At the start of the story, the couple review upcoming appointments, including a return to Pallisade Avenue, a location that triggers the narrator's memories of his very first, formative assignment.
