Buford Bill Ed. : Granta 25:Martin Amis(USA) by Bill Buford
Ryn is a mess: unruly hair, untidy apartment, paint under her nails and a broken spirit. She's the irregularity in Desmond's neat, perfect schedule.
When she decides to move away from the city and resign from her position in his company, he attempts to take it in stride, sign a severance package, and wish her good luck.
One problem: a king does not relinquish his future queen.
Disclaimer from the author Kings of the Tower is a steamy romantic comedy series about woman going down the rabbit hole, and figuring out that it's fun in wonderland. Don't expect them to change, or tame the men they love. Don't expect the male protagonist to force them into anything.
Bill Buford is a Staff Writer and European Correspondent for The New Yorker. He was the Fiction Editor of the magazine for eight years, from April 1995 to December 2002.

He has edited three anthologies: The Best of Granta Travel, The Best of Granta Reportage, and The Granta Book of the Family.
