Wifeshopping: Stories
of Steven Wingate (Goodreads Author)
Description
Wifeshopping centers on the ultimate human quest: the search for companionship, love, and understanding. These captivating stories feature American men, love-starved and striving, who try and often fail to connect with the women they imagine could be their wives. Some of the women are fiancĂ©es, some are new girlfriends, some are strangers who cross the menâs paths for only a few hours or moments. In âBeaching It,â an artist traveling on the summer circuit begins an affair with a rich, married local. In âMe and Paul,â a lonely traveler adopts an alter ego to help him impress a single mother. In âBill,â a trip to a flea market highlights the essential differences between a man and his fiancĂ©e. Throughout this thoroughly entertaining read, Wingateâs sympathetic characterizations reveal both the hopefulness and the heartache behind our earnest but sometimes misguided attempts at intimacy.
