Stories for the EasyJet generation: beautifully crafted, witty, perceptive, sometimes shocking and often heartbreaking stories that examine the impact of cheap international travel on modern lives and relationships.

A lads' weekend in Eastern Europe spirals out of control. A bleeding tourist is rescued by a stranger in downtown Toronto. A middle-aged woman holidaying in Tunisia considers the local options for love. An unemployed man shares his fantasies of a sex tour of Arizona with his long-suffering girlfriend.

With wit, wisdom, insight and pathos, Glass examines men and women of all ages who, through the advent of discount air travel, play out their lives and loves across the globe. Glass brilliantly captures the isolation, dislocation and occasional epiphanies of those who find themselves a thousand miles from home, and those who long to be.
