Violet Rothko and Other Stories - John Grabowski - Bog

A shy barista dates a quirky customer, until something unexpected upends her world. A waiter dishes on the privileged suburbanites who pile into his restaurant on Tuesday nights. Only the closest few know the true colors of a famous movie star and humanitarian-and they wish they didn't. A group of rootless young people move through days of total nihilism, before one decides being an artist's model is the highest calling imaginable. Life appears picture-perfect for two newlyweds-until she's confronted with a revelation that leaves her the choice of ending their marriage or moving forward. These are intimate, sometimes funny, sometimes sad stories that reflect our uneasy zeitgeist today.
