"[An] astonishingly inventive collection of stories...I don't think I've ever read anything more original..." --Caroline Leavitt, New York Times bestselling author of Pictures of You
"With desperation or ambivalence, obsession or just plain hope, Cohen's characters navigate the mysterious etiquette of digital-age romance, often getting lost in the fever of a potential idyllic relationship that falters by the first date. Though many of these stories parallel each other and occasionally slip into bitter, cynical narratives, Cohen is at her best when she departs from conventional romantic comedy plots and explores what we think about when we anticipate love." --Publishers Weekly
"Cohen pushes genre boundaries...it's gorgeous and heartbreaking. Definitely worth the read." --The California Journal of Women Writers
Love meets technology with a dash of quirk in this collection of highly original short stories
An aspiring actress meets an Icelandic Yak farmer on a matchmaking Web site. An online forum for cancer support turns into a love triangle for an English professor, a Canadian fisherman, and an elementary school teacher living in Japan. A deer and a polar bear flirt via Skype. In The Hypothetical Girl a menagerie of characters graze and jockey, play and hook up in the online dating world with mixed and sometimes dark results. Flirting and communicating in chat rooms, through texts, e-mails, and IMs, they grope their way through a virtual maze of potential mates, falling in and out of what they think and hope may be true love.
With levity and high style, Cohen takes her readers into a world where screen and keyboard meet the heart, with consequences that range from wonderful to weird.The Hypothetical Girl captures all the mystery, misery, and magic of the eternal search for human connection.
