About Coming up for Air: True Stories, About You (Unabridged)

"If you are or were in a relationship then not only is this book for you, it's about you!" Written like a novel, Coming up for Air features a collection of true, interconnecting stories, performed by an international cast, complimented by witty, bold and enlightening narrative from an empathetic writer who has clearly not only mastered, but also experienced his subject matter. Gay or straight, man (yes even you) or woman, we all experience relationships, regardless of whether or not we like to talk about them. Family members, work colleagues, friends and lovers, some relationships are platonic, some intimate, some good, some bad and others downright ugly, but all relevant because it's these experiences that shape us. Coming up for Air is the culmination of my lifelong fascination with why, as humans, we can be so loving, yet hurtful to one another. And you won't be surprised to learn that I started compiling this collection of sensational true stories from the USA and the UK, shortly after the spectacular demise of my own relationship. The result is a selection of heart-warming, dramatic and terrifying true stories about friendship, love, marriage, sex, obsession, narcissism and betrayal that you'll have to hear to believe. So, come take a front row seat, but be warned, this is not a journey for the faint-hearted. It's a rollercoaster ride through some of the most remarkable, jaw-dropping relationship stories you'll ever hear with some of the most captivating characters you'll ever meet. You'll experience the highs of love, the lows of heartbreak and the stomach churning terror of fighting for your life. In order to bring these stories to you exactly how they occurred, some chapters contain profanity and scenes of a violent nature.
