Qpid and Them Valerie Haynes Perry

Intimacy as an ideal is one way to regard this series of romantic vignettes. Qpid is a lonely and disgruntled matchmaker tasked with connecting Her and Him "over, and over, and over again." In this original series of vignettes, the reader gets to fill in many of her or his blanks regarding perceptions of the story's nonlinear progression, making it interactive in an unusual way. Not only does the reader get to experience the idealized intellectual, physical, and spiritual intimacy of one couple, she/he also gets to find out if Qpid, himself, finally meets his own match.
