A god overlooks the world he created with restless dissatisfaction, and contemplates ending his misery. A young painter sees a dazzling woman from across the coffee shop and quickly falls in love, but her past brings him unspeakable shame. A gambling addict hides his debts to save his marriage, until a shady executive demands her money back or she'll squeal. Computer Love is a collection of stories about people who have experienced a profound sense of loss and seek to deeply root their sense of self in the philosophy of love. Ordinary people are driven to extreme ends about their conviction in their common bonds. Some survive, others do not, but their collective existence answers the question, what happens when your world slips away and only love remains?
