16 Categories of Desire maps the human heart in all its passion, valour, ineptitude, and vulnerability. These eleven stories are populated by scientists and eccentrics, writers and wastrels, all looking fervently for love in its many guises. Some long for the unattainable; others struggle with the compulsion to destroy love before it�s taken from them. Occasionally scabrous, horrifically funny, intermittently appalling, and wildly erotic, the stories in 16 Categories of Desire bring to life a world in which a screen of irony may be the only defence against fear and loneliness.
