It's no big deal.

Sometimes things go wrong in ways no one would expect. Is the one who gets a free weekend with her husband really the winner? What lies behind one gentleman's seemingly perfect behaviour? Is a woman a bad mother if she loves one of her children more than the other? And how do professional thieves steal, i.e. find birthday presents?

The stories about how important love is for us in all its forms, what we lie to ourselves and others, and how we can be both foolish and generous, are connected like a red thread by the element of a surprising punchline that can both amuse and astonish the reader.
