Longlisted for the 2016 Giller Prize

The stories in The Two of Us focus on pairs: intense one-on-one relationships and encounters.

Members Reviews:

A wonderful and surprising collection

The Two Of Us is a collection of stories about relationships; some familial, some sexual, some desperate, some endearing, and some perplexing. The stories are always surprising and rewarding to the reader. Told with minimal embellishment,they are concise, but not cold, and totally enveloping. A wonderful and surprising collection.

Well written, but leaves you wanting more

I am not a big fan of short stories. Knowing that, I must say that I appreciated the author's fine writing, but all in all, left me dissatisfied.

Wonderful storyteller.

Any additional comments?

Well, my ADD keeps me from reading fiction, and I have to reallllly be motivated to get through a nonfiction, but I have LOVED this audio book. I'm about 2/3 the way through. I've been listening to it forty-minutes a pop while in my portable sauna every-other day, over the computer speakers of my nearby computer, but the better way would be in my car, so I could pause between stories. But I like solitude when I'm in my car: no music, no nuttin, just paying attention to my thoughts, feelings, reactions, as a strategy to be grown in self-awareness. ANYway, the problem with not being able to pause between stories, is that I have no time to ponder the story, the characters, like one does after seeing a movie at a theater, sometimes for the rest of the evening, maybe into the next day. But because I'm in my sauna, I'm forced to jump right in to the next story, before I have a chance to digest the one I just heard. So, I'm looking forward to the audio version of Lily Harp. And Barton's first full novel! :)

A fling is all it was supposed to be, but the one-nighter guy seems to be interested in more. Its unfortunate, as Kara flies back to the States soon. Since her divorce, the UK doesn't hold very fond memories for her, but could the guy she pulled be the one who brings her back to Britain?

"Booty Call": Lauren isn't going to drive all the way to Marcus' house after he's called her in the middle of the night, is she? Yeah, she does. Silly her. She's a sucker for sweet words from the man she thinks will make her dreams come true.

Hurrying to the laundrette, Nicola reads the note that tells her she's been dumped by her boyfriend of four years. Following that, its one disaster after another. Although Nicola might not mind all the fracas too much. Not when shes rescued twice by a heroic paramedic called Ben. Could he be the one to make her day bearable again?

"Jingleballs": Isla is spending Christmas alone this year, and shes going shopping for a friend. The problem is, she needs to get into the closed up Ann Summers shop to get the (cough) items she needs. Luckily, a woman called Cherry appears to save the day when she invites Isla into her (ahem) shop. When Isla takes her festive purchase home, they dont jingle or jiggle. They glow. And something truly magical happens that may just alter Islas lonely Christmas after all.

Bite Sized Morsels!

I enjoy quick story collections once in a while. Sometimes, I want a quick listen while I check messages or while I wait for my K cup to get filled up so I can go on with my day.

BUT I want a satisfying story. These short stories were unque; some were unique, some creepy, and even a heart tugging innocent sweet one mixed in.

Ive picked up the Chess longer Flash collection and crosses fingers hope it gets even better as I go into the hectic next 72 holiday hours!

Tiffany Marz was DYNAMIC with her various voices and accents! Chess lucked out, working with her on this project.
