Perry Parkhurst, a perfectly polished young lawyer from Toledo, reaches the end of his rope when a quarrel with his glamorous sweetheart, Betty Medill, leaves him heartbroken and humiliated. In a moment of wounded bravado, he lets himself be swept into an evening of reckless celebration—one that ends with him renting a shabby camel costume for a high-society circus ball.

Muss man die 80-er Jahre erlebt haben, um sie mögen bzw. verstehen zu können? Was macht einen Menschen zu einem Dörflioriginal? Gibt es Ferialjobs, bei denen kein Vitamin B der Welt mehr helfen kann? Was macht Frau, wenn sie überall männliche Nackerte sieht? Mit welchen Mannsbilderprofessionen harmoniert Frau eher nicht bzw. welche sind für eine längerwährende Partnerschaft dann doch nicht geeignet? Und warum kommt eine Bissgurn nur selten allein? Mit diesen und anderen nicht unbedingt lebenswichtigen, aber recht lustigen Fragen beschäftigt sich die Autorin in gewohnt selbstironischer Manier.

Un encuentro casual en una gasolinera perdida, un asalto rutinario con consecuencias inesperadas, la mezcolanza de anhelos y de voces en la salida de un hotel para jalear a los jugadores de un famosísimo equipo de fútbol, los pensamientos de una francotiradora en sus largas esperas… Una mujer cualquiera vuelve a casa es un compendio de cómo lo sublime, lo injusto, lo irónico o lo aciago puede aguardarnos, a cualquiera de nosotros, a la vuelta de la esquina de nuestras vidas de rutina.

Michael's looking forward to a quiet night after he finishes work… but then he's asked to bury a body.

But when a scrappy terrier sneaks into his office, Sven finds himself saddled with the world’s most determined (and oddly charming) intruder. This dog isn’t just any stray. He understands German commands, has a talent for sniffing out trouble, and refuses to leave Sven’s side.
