"Bump" by Diana Wagman

From an award-winning writing, this is a darkly funny, cinematic page-turner 
that explores the line between obsession and love. Bump is the story of a trio 
of motorists and one policeman linked together by a tangled, life-altering web 
of coincidence in the immediate aftermath of a three-car pileup in Los Angeles. 
Dorothy is to be married in less than 24 hours but can't shake the memory of 
her ex-boyfriend. Madelyn is a married mother of two who falls in love with a 
double-amputee she met through a suicide hotline. Leo is a golden-eyed Latino 
who speaks no Spanish and has come to L. A. to reclaim his girlfriend. Ray is a 
suicide-obsessed Beverly Hills cop whose wife has just left him. Diana Wagman's 
fast-paced and vividly cinematic narrative presents an engrossing tableau of 
synchronicity steered by obsession and alienation. Beautifully written and 
deeply affecting, Bump is hard to put down, and hard to forget. 
All page numbers, pages, and chapter headings have been counted and formatted.  
Spell Check has been run and all indicated words were checked against the print 
book.  Write to mmbeagle@xxxxxxxxx with any questions.
