About this listen

'Batty and brilliant'
THE TIMES

'Truly original . . . deeply weird, deeply funny and deeply felt'
DAILY TELEGRAPH

'Very strange and very funny'
GUARDIAN

'Audaciously imagined. Slyly executed. Surprisingly tender. Deliciously weird'
RACHEL YODER, author of NIGHTBITCH

'This book is a dog whistle for the true freaks - never have I felt so seen! I loved it'
RITA BULLWINKEL, author of Booker Prize-longlisted HEADSHOT

Linda makes $20 an hour as a content moderator, flagging comments that violate a tech conglomerate's terms and conditions. Each night, she returns to the windowless room in a garage that she rents from a family who pretend she isn't there.

But once a month, she escapes to San Francisco International Airport for a clandestine meeting on the cheapest flight out that night. Linda's secret is that she's sexually attracted to planes: their intelligent windscreens, sleek fuselages and powerful engines make her feel a way that no human lover ever could.

Linda believes her destiny is to someday 'marry' one of her suitors by dying in a plane crash, a catastrophic event that would unite her with her soulmate plane for eternity. So when her co-worker Karina invites her to join a group of women using vision boards to manifest their desires, she can't resist the chance to hasten her romantic fate. However, as the vision boards seem to manifest items more quickly - and more literally - than Linda had expected, the carefully balanced elements of her life begin to spin out of her control, and she must choose between maintaining the trappings of normalcy or launching herself headlong towards her greatest dream.

Good fun

I found this kind of comforting. It’s really a story about friendship, compassion and overcoming guilt. I love how everything came together. It’s not going to change the world but it was really fun and worth the time to listen to.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
