Why we love women

Mircea Cărtărescu pays homage to women—respectable ladies and sex bombs, girls of fifteen or fifteen billion, women who sleep with their eyes open and women who appear in your dreams simply “because they are women, because they are not men.”

Sincerity, self-parody, writing on the continuum that runs from sex through love. Each story builds around a seed of the exceptional hidden in the normal. Exceptional results.
