Seeking the Amazing
註釋From the author of The Nameless Social Worker, this is a disarmingly frank and true account of Rachel Bramble's experiences as she searches for a soulmate via Internet chat rooms and dating sites. After separating from her husband but remaining friends with him, his untimely death leaves her alone, with two children. A subsequent relationship ends when her partner is revealed as having been unfaithful. Having come to terms with her situation, Rachel realises how much she misses male company and the warmth, love and affection that goes with a close relationship. Embarking on a challenging double learning curve, she not only has to adjust to the idea of dating again but also to finding the right man by negotiating this relatively new computer method; it's all so different to the days of spotting someone across the dancefloor! Rachel's day by day record takes us through the excitement, as well as the disappointment, with humour and candour. Inspired by one of the men she corresponds with, she determines not to settle for Mr OK but to seek Mr Amazing. As time goes on, however, and she finds herself reassessing just which qualities really matter in her dream man. Will she ever meet him?
