description
The stories in Paper Heart investigate contemporary romance from a wide range of angles, each centering around the timeless topics of love and heartbreak. Stories like "Sunday Morning at Jonseys' Diner" explore both familial and romantic love while stories like "Summer Fling" and "The Idea of the Mask" examine desire in the face of an inevitable end. Though the stories differ aesthetically, what is constant throughout the collection is a love that is fragile and characters who navigate life as thwarted dreamers and hopeless romantics, sufferers of their own paper hearts.
