520 1 $a""I've decided to love you till the day I die." Carmen reads these words in a note from Terry at the beginning of Life's Little Difficulties. Is it really possible to decide to love someone?" "Terry's on-and-off job allows him to take care of their baby son, Etienne, while Carmen works her shifts as waitress and aspiring manager of a popular pool lounge. Terry has also been reading about the Yi Jing (does this mean he's an intellectual?) and consulting his oracle daily (which method of consultation is best? the sixteen coloured marbles? the fifty stalks of the yarrow plant?). From time to time he visits his friend Zed, who is converting an old building into lofts and a cultural centre (how is the love of art transmitted? by osmosis? by abrasion?)." "All of this activity, all of these questions have stirred up Terry and Carmen's spirits, opening up unexpected possibilities, as well as not a little anxiety. Everything they've taken for granted in their lives has been called into question, even the language they speak in front of their son."--BOOK JACKET.
