My 1,000 Americans: A Year-Long Journey through the Personals

English female, 30s, slim and attractive, seeks professional male for fun times. Think you've seen and heard it all? London-based writer Rochelle Morton hooked up with a thousand men in eighteen months, and her blow-by-blow account of the experience is the most eye-opening and hilarious dispatch from the singles front since Bridget Jones cracked open her diary. A bestselling author in the U.K., where her first book, Eat Your Lonely Heart Out, chronicled England's "lonely hearts" scene, Rochelle is no stranger to power dating. But the overwhelming response to this "slim, attractive English female" surprised even her; after placing just a single innocuously worded ad in six different American newspapers, she was inundated with more than two thousand recorded messages begging for a date. Using a highly scientific "meet one, delete one" winnowing process, she ultimately contacted a thousand would-be Romeos and recorded her interactions and meetings with each in meticulous detail. Did she find true love amongst the slew of cheating husbands, Anglo-philes, bullies, lonely guys, and fetishists (foot, food, feline, and otherwise) who answered her ads? Are American men different from British men? Are there any nice guys out there -- anywhere? For anyone who has considered dipping a toe in the personals dating pool, My 1,000 Americans is required reading and proof positive that truth is stranger than fiction.
