Title: Stories so ugly you fear you'll never find happiness again
Product review: Described as "hilarious, sexy, and deeply tender", this book is anything but. Instead I read an ugly book of ugly characters. While the writing is masterful in creating the twin emotions of depression and despair within the reader, there is no rational reason why any reader would choose to feel this way. I left "Kissing in Manhattan" wondering where the stories promised by the book jacket had gone. Maybe Patrick tied them up and refused to let them come out and play.
