Présentation de l’éditeur
Un homme et une femme. Ils ne se connaissent pas mais échangent des mails. Jusqu à devenir accros. Jusqu à ne plus pouvoir se passer l'un de l'autre, sans se rencontrer pour autant... Savoureuse et captivante, cette comédie de moeurs explore avec finesse et humour la naissance du sentiment amoureux.
It's a virtual romance that begins by chance. When Leo mistakenly receives e-mails from a stranger named Emmi, he replies--and Emmi writes back. Soon, secrets are shared, sparks fly, and erotic tension simmers. Even though Emmi is married, it seems only a matter of time till they meet. But will their feelings survive a real-life encounter? And, if so-what then? Funny and fast-paced, Love Virtually offers plenty of twists, turns, and satisfaction.
'One of the cleverest and most magical love-dialogues
in modern literature' Volker Hage, Der Spiegel. 'This was a massive,
million-plus bestseller in Glattauer's native Germany, and it's easy to see
why. Short, striking and snappily written, Love Virtually explores the
brilliant premise of love by accidental email' Henry Sutton, Daily Mirror. 'A
love story for the Internet age and one that will not fail to pull you in -
excellent' Shona Lappin, New Books Magazine.
'Write to me, Emmi.
Writing is like kissing, but without lips. Writing is kissing with the mind.'
It begins by chance: Leo receives emails in error from an unknown woman called
Emmi. Being polite he replies, and Emmi writes back. A few brief exchanges are
all it takes to spark a mutual interest in each other, and soon Emmi and Leo
are sharing their innermost secrets and longings. The erotic tension simmers,
and it seems only a matter of time before they will meet in person. But they
keep putting off the moment - the prospect both excites and unsettles them. And
after all, Emmi is happily married. Will their feelings for each other survive
the test of a real-life encounter? And if so, what then? Love Virtually is a
funny, fast-paced and utterly absorbing novel, with plenty of twists and turns,
about a love affair conducted entirely by email.
