AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Rachel and Chris have been friends for ages. They met at drama school, and basically haven't gone a day without seeing each other since. They're everything young creatives aspire to be: artistically satisfied, moderately well-known, and ready to be commissioned for a follow-up.

'And how do they do it? Well, has a lot to do with their perfectly platonic friendship — although Chris likes to joke that it's because there was never any chance of them falling in love. You see, Rachel is a lesbian and Chris is well—not.

'Just as all their dreams seem to be coming true, Rachel decides that she wants to have a child. When she asks Chris to donate his sperm for the pregnancy, he agrees. But this request changes the way they think of each other — and suddenly their new "creative" project cracks open a gulf between them.'
