Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In his début pamphlet, Max Wallis traces the year-long course of a love affair and all its constituent parts: sex and sensuality, longing and loneliness, desire and disappointment, heady beginnings and inevitable endings; in a world dominated by high street brands, text messaging and social media. Featuring trademark acrobatics with language to in an attempt to grapple with this fast, feisty world, Modern Love recasts love in a sincere, vivacious voice.'Max Wallis is inventive, playful and moving by turns, and unflinchingly honest in his writing. Language is both a toy and a knife to him. Modern Love takes the reader through a love affair and does so beautifully, tellingly and adventurously.

He also runs the project somethingeveryday which brings award-winning authors, poets and artists together to challenge their craft through a daily discipline.
