همه چیز وحشتناک است و تو آدم بدی هستی

In these quirky interconnected stories of first-person narratives, text messages, and Facebook posts, gay men look for love, bake pies, hook up on Grindr, use Botox, have threesomes with ghosts, and fear happiness: a deadpan, tragicomic exploration of love, desire, and dysfunction in the twenty-first century. "A YouTube star becomes famous after he documents his breakup online. An anxious, lactose-intolerant office worker obsesses over a stranger who says "Nice shorts, bro" to him in passing. A couple wants to open up their relationship to a ghost. A monster just wants to find love in his human skin. In these unconventional, interconnected stories--the first work of fiction by acclaimed poet Daniel Zomparelli, editor-in-chief of Poetry Is Dead magazine--gay men look for love in any way possible. From social media, to finding someone within a dream, the ways in which these characters search for joy becomes both limitless and overwhelming. With wry abandon and a beguiling heart, Everything Is Awful is a deadpan, tragicomic exploration of love, desire, and dysfunction in the twenty-first century."-- Provided by publisher A disarming, tragicomic story collection about looking for true love in a cesspool of weird dysfunction and bad dates
