The Internet has blurred the boundaries of time, space and desire - no matter how far lovers are from each other, they are always available here and now. So is it possible to break up for real? That's the question Joanna Walsh's narrator sets out to answer as she travels through Europe and relives the end of a novel that took place largely online. This pilgrimage is dictated by chance. On trains, buses, planes, on the go, in constant motion, Walsh comprehends the complexities of turning longing into language, reappropriates and reinvents the status of the traveling writer, once available only to men, and creates maps of cities with which he navigates the complexities of modern love. She writes about art, boredom, shame, photography, marriage, technology and women's place in public space. This book is about borders - between places, people, genres - and how we can cross them.
