Description: Hilariously insightful and delightfully suspenseful Cult Classic is an original: a masterfully crafted tale of love memory morality and mind control as well as a fresh foray into the philosophy of romance. A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR at the Washington Post the BBC Esquire Harper's Bazaar and more! One night in New York City's Chinatown a woman is at a work reunion dinner with former colleagues when she excuses herself to buy a pack of cigarettes. On her way back she runs into a former boyfriend. And then another. And another. Nothing is quite what it seems as the city becomes awash with ghosts of heartbreaks past. What would normally pass for coincidence becomes something far stranger as the recently engaged Lola must contend not only with the viability of her current relationship but with the fact that both her best friend and her former boss a magazine editor turned mystical guru might have an unhealthy investment in the outcome. Memories of the past swirl and converge in ways both comic and eerie as Lola is forced to decide if she will surrender herself to the conspiring of one very contemporary cult. Is it possible to have a happy ending in an age when the past is ever at your fingertips and sanity is for sale? With her gimlet eye Sloane Crosley spins a wry literary fantasy that is equal parts page - turner and poignant portrayal of alienation.
