    Contradictions (both real and apparent), oppositions, enigmas, provocations, challenges——this is the kind of material that makes a life, and is the kind of material that, in fiction, one is never quite sure of. With Pretty Ugly, Kirsty Gunn reminds us again that she is a master of just such stuff, presenting ambiguity and complication as the essence of the storyteller's endeavour.
     
    The sheer force of life that Gunn is able to load these stories up with is both testament to her unrivalled skill and an exercise in what she describes as 'reading and writing ugly', in order to pursue the deeper truths that lie at the heart of both the human imagination and human rationality.
     
    So here we have all the strange and seemingly impossible dualities that make up real life——and pretty ugly it can be, as well as beautiful, hopeful, bleak, difficult, exhilarating. But never, ever dull.

    Everything Katie thinks she knows about her life is a lie, starting with the belief that she is wholly human. It all begins when she goes on a date with Ezra, the college heartthrob, who wastes no time taking her apart despite being surrounded by people in the middle of a crowded movie theater. That should be the most exciting thing to have ever happened to her, except that's just the beginning...
     
     
     
    FALLING FOR ETERNITY
     
     
     
    Naomi enjoys a quiet, peaceful life. Her only grievance is that she harbors feelings for her guardian, a mage who doesn't return her feelings. According to him, she owes the dragon a life debt and in return, he has asked for her hand in marriage. She doesn't remember incurring such a debt, but her lack of memory of the event does not nullify her debt.
     
     
     
    ~~~~~ PG Excerpt ~~~~~
     
     
     
    "Did I say you could let go of the popcorn?" he whispered, breath hot against the side of her face. 
     
    It wasn't safe for her to loosen her jaw, even if he didn't have a hand over her mouth, so she shook her head and put her shaking fingers back to the cardboard. The contents shook along with her trembling fingers, a sound that was thankfully masked by the ongoing explosions in the movie. 
     
    For a terrifying moment, she wondered if this was all a prank. Any moment now, the other people in the theater was going to turn towards them and start snapping pictures of her with her legs spread, her skirt folded over her lap and her- her everything exposed. 
     
    "Should we keep going?" he asked, no judgement in his voice, and that fear faded to nothingness. 
     
    No. Ezra was known to bang everything on legs, but he wasn't the kind to kiss and tell. In fact, none of the women he had went out with had anything bad to say about him, which was a feat because he had gone out with so many of them. Some even twice. If all his dates went this way, she understood why. 
     
    She shook her head. Maybe she should tell him that she had never had sex before so he would show mercy on her, but he was toeing the line of exhibitionism and she thought sex would probably never be this exciting again, so she kept her mouth shut and nodded. 
     
    "Good girl," he whispered, making her shiver. She should probably put some thought into why those two words had such an effect on her, but that was for later, when her brain wasn't melting out of her ears. 
     
    His palm slowly pulled away from her mouth. It left her lips and cheeks feeling cold and slightly damp, and she had to bite the inside of her cheek to keep from making a sound when he cupped her between her legs.
     
    "Stay still, stay quiet," he reiterated against the side of her head and then went back to stroking her.

Later, he’s invited to an important gathering in a faraway place—but who knows what dangers might be waiting for him?
