Some of the stories you can tell are written by a man.

I’ll come back to it. Characterisation brilliant - felt bleak & stuck - needed to leave it for now.

The book is a little depressing. All the short stories revolve around the theme of loneliness so I wouldn’t recommend reading if you aren’t in the mind space for this.

These stories do reflect the title of this collection. It's very clear these characters don't know what they are doing. The concept is there and it's an interesting angle however the delivery was beyond lackluster. I couldn't care less about the characters and I found the stories ended too abruptly.
