In an excerpt from the British novel, Kiss and Tell, Alain de Botton describes a young male narrator and his girlfriend, Isabel, in a theater where they coincidentally encounter Isabel’s parents. Through Isabel’s elaborate and detailed descriptions of her parents’ behavior and actions, De Botton reveals her comical embarrassment of the presence of her parents.
