Description:
At times funny, at other times sad, and more than often a mixture of the two, <i>Giving Up</i> by Mike Steeves is a deeply felt account of what goes on in the inner sanctum of the modern couple's apartment.<br><br>In grappling with the line between what happened and what might have happened, Steeves gives voice to the anguish of a generation of people who grew up with great expectations, and are now settling into their own personal failures and compromises: James is obsessed with completing his life's work. Mary is worried about their problems starting a family, and is scared that their future might not turn out as she'd planned. In the span of a few hours on an ordinary night in a non-descript city, two relatively small events will have enormous consequences on James' and Mary's lives, both together and apart.<br><br>With an unrelenting prose style and pitch-black humour, <i>Giving Up</i> addresses difficult topics&mdash;James's ruinous ambition, and Mary's quiet anguish&mdash;in a funny and relatable way.
