Love, sex, disappointment and helplessness are the subjects of these eight stories and novellas. In the title piece, named after the familiar sign-off of the television news, a couple have run out of things to say to each other, though their lips keep moving. The settings vary widely, some realistic and some not, but each tragicomic piece tries to find meaning in plain everyday existence, often mockingly and with very black humour, and turns a critical eye on the world we live in and help to make.
