Summary

• ET-Y-MOL-O-GY: "Seven words map the course of Susan Anne and Calvin's journey through life"--publisher's website.
• John, Who's Here from Cambridge: "Overworked, under-qualified, and broke, Jess takes on another job to make ends meet -- as a personal caretaker for a graduate student named John. John has cerebral palsy. John is beautiful. And John is here from Cambridge. That is, Massachusetts. Where he went to undergrad, just in case you were wondering. One Friday night after the timesheet has been put away, music is played, assumptions are challenged, and two lonely people learn some things about each other"--publisher's website.
• The Logic: "Evan and Andrew reconnect on Facebook. While Evan is starting a career in publishing in New York, Andrew is incarcerated in a Texas prison. As their childhood friendship starts to resurface, Andrew tries to push through the banality of digital communication to fulfill a plan they had when they were kids"--publisher's website.
• Mandate: "Forced into a guy's night out by their wives, a stay-at-home dad and a stay-in-his-cubicle accountant go on a disastrous 'first date' only to learn that friendship really is magic"--publisher's website.
• Taisetsu Na Hito: "Bethany and Charles, a wholesome American couple, become owners of Android Minami, a Japanese robo-maid. As Minami becomes integrated into their mundane lives, repressed emotions arise and the line between servitude and fetishism begin to collide"--publisher's website.
• A Wake for David's Fucked-up Face: "David did something stupid on the way home from prom. Now, Cal's covered in blood, eating Funyuns in his room, and Cal's mom doesn't know what to do with him. Why doesn't he seem sad? Are live-action role-playing fantasy games really the answer? And where is David's head?"--publisher's website.
