Happily Ever After

Tatjana Bozic is on a quixotic journey to discover why her romances seem doomed to fail. She's revisiting the 'ex-men' that populate her whimsical, sometimes stormy, past. What happened, she wonders? Why didn't they work out? In this playful exploration of flaws, failures, and incompatible impulses, one woman questions herself, her friends, and her one-time lovers in an effort to understand whether the kind of cosmic unity she so earnestly seeks can ever be found in her own relationships. Or whether, like the Russian novels through which she views much of her own experience, she is fated to search in vain through banal sexual encounters in elevator shafts and among the rooftops. "Men have this extraterrestrial power to make me one with the universe. Men. Oh, men."
