boyfriend, who s passing out advertisements for his band on a snowy
street corner in Baltimore. She s seen their dismal future together
at Dr. Chin s office--she and her boyfriend, both many years older,
singing Happy Birthday to a Chihuahua and arguing about cheese. She
hopes for more. Meanwhile, Godfrey is proposing to his girlfriend,
Madge, who s not quite willing to take that leap; she wants to see
their future together first--just to be sure they re meant for each
other. The Future for Curious People follows Evelyn and Godfrey s
soon-to-be-entwined lives, set in motion by the fabulist premise of
a world with envisionists like Dr. Chin. As the characters struggle
with their pasts and possible futures, they wrestle with sorrow,
love, death, and fate.A novel that will capture you with its wit,
its hopefulness, its anxious twists and turns, this love story is
ultimately about finding happiness and accepting our fleeting
existence. A love story about love stories . . . The pages burst
with laugh-out-loud scenes and crisply original set-ups. I loved it
