    Nora Lange's debut novel, Us Fools, was praised as the "Great American Novel" by Molly Young in the New York Times, and "a razor-sharp critique of American capitalism" by Michael Schaub at NPR. Now, she turns her eye toward the daily exercise of getting by.In "Heart Beats," Carol and David arrive late to a Boston dinner party for a night of "messy socializing" with other couples, including a former cult-leader turned financial-advisor and a woman who learned of a "kinky sort of game" while riding public transit. In "Island of Phaetons," an expatriate living in Istanbul is called away from her daily life with "the husband" and "the friend who wanted more than friendship" to visit her mother, who notoriously makes bad decisions, and who has just arrived in Greece "with news" for her daughter, a tantalizing invitation that has her daughter immediately on a plane. In "Dog Star," two figurines live out their dreams before succumbing to the truth that they have been assembled inside of a snow globe and will never go anywhere. In the title story, a new mother in Los Angeles navigates a job, a long-distance relationship with her husband, and her visiting mother, while hoping to find relief in daytime app sex.Day Care is a biting reflection on economic precarity, love, and peeing your pants.

    About this book: 
    Zimmermann, the author's fictional friend and (sympathetic) terror of his neighbourhood, never tires of trying the nerves of his fellow citizens and his unfortunate friend with ever new and always crazy ideas and deeds. Whether as a driving licence applicant, inventor, lion tamer or mere tourist, he amazes or frightens his fellow citizens and - hopefully - leaves the reader smiling and satisfied. 
    In this volume, you will find 28 amusing and extremely exciting stories about the interesting, heavy-soldering and 'good-for-nothing' Zimmermann.

    He’s been a bad, bad rake—and it takes a governess to teach him a lesson 
    The accidental governess 
    After her livelihood slips through her fingers, Alexandra Mountbatten takes on an impossible post: transforming a pair of wild orphans into proper young ladies. However, the girls don’t need discipline. They need a loving home. Try telling that to their guardian, Chase Reynaud: duke’s heir in the streets and devil in the sheets. The ladies of London have tried—and failed—to make him settle down. Somehow, Alexandra must reach his heart . . . without risking her own. 
    The infamous rake 
    Like any self-respecting libertine, Chase lives by one rule: no attachments. When a stubborn little governess tries to reform him, he decides to give her an education—in pleasure. That should prove he can’t be tamed. But Alexandra is more than he bargained for: clever, perceptive, passionate. She refuses to see him as a lost cause. Soon the walls around Chase’s heart are crumbling . . . and he’s in danger of falling, hard.
