Imaginary Boyfriends

" Midtown Manhattan was like a stifling greenhouse filled with exotic human orchids that couldn't survive anywhere else and its streets were littered with their broken blossoms. Adele, bless her heart, was one of them." In his first collection, Imaginary Boyfriends, Manuel Igrejas spins eight tales of love, loss, sex, fantasy, and delusion, where characters who think they're clever often do foolish things.
