Andrea Segovia Loses Control

A short story by Fletcher Kovich

Andrea is addicted to correcting other people's mistakes, and when she moves to London to meet her new boyfriend, she finds that she has plenty of work to do.

The city gives her fresh material on every pavement: misspelt menus, buses that stop a yard past the shelter, and a boyfriend who leaves cupboard doors an inch ajar as if the air itself needed editing.
