Adam has left Greta. He says he needs to be alone, that being in a relationship limits his freedom, and that he doesn’t want to hurt her. Greta has a few things to say about that—and some friends ready to listen to every word. What begins as an autopsy of a breakup ends up casting doubt on much more than just an ex-boyfriend: it calls into question love, work, independence, and an expectation placed on women from birth—the expectation to always be "available." Available to care for others, to understand them, to anticipate their desires. To put oneself in another’s shoes, even when that person never returns the favor. Whether they have a partner or not, women are expected to be perpetually available. But what happens when a woman grows tired of that role? And how do you stop waiting for someone when, deep down, you still want them to come back? Acerbic, intimate, and brazenly funny, Jenn Díaz invites us into a conversation among friends—a space where rage coexists with tenderness, and no contradiction is left unaddressed. This sharp, piercing novel reads like a candid, personal confession, transforming heartbreak into an uncomfortable question: why is it that one person’s freedom so often comes at the expense of another’s?
