An Exciting and Vivid Inner Life Paul Dalla Rosa, Dion Kagan , single work review
— Review of An Exciting and Vivid Inner Life Paul Dalla Rosa , 2022 selected work short story ;
'A WHITE-COLLAR gay man, bored on a luxury holiday in Majorca, takes a bus to Palma and uses the Grindr app to buy extortionately priced drugs. An Australian actor, half-heartedly attempting to resuscitate her career in Hollywood, eats marijuana gummies to make things “soft around the edges”. A woman with a loathsome call-centre job shares a fl at with a man who rejects her friendship overtures; he writes her a note saying he “would prefer to live separate but cohabited lives” and is “not comfortable with social interactions with a stranger”.'
