Love Stories brings together a captivating assortment of short stories inspired by romantic entanglement in its many forms: first love, infatuation, obsession, unrequited love, marriage, adultery, jealousy, and the complicated bonds of those who have spent their lives together.
A tremendous array of writers evoke a variety of moods, from the raw, erotic passion of D.H. Lawrence and Colette to the wickedly cynical comedy of Dorothy Parker and Roald Dahl; from the agonizing madness of jealousy in Vladimir Nabokov's 'That in Aleppo Once...' to the yearning romantic illusions in Scott Fitzgerald's 'Winter Dreams'. Objects of passion include a glamorous silent-movie starlet in Elizabeth Bowen's haunting 'Dead Mabelle', a faithful ghost in Yasunari Kawabata's 'Immortality', and in Margaret Atwood's 'Bluebeard's Egg' a heart surgeon who spends his days penetrating the mysteries of the human heart but who seems oddly emotionally opaque himself. Jhumpa Lahiri plumbs the depths of a couple sundered by tragedy while Lorrie Moore movingly portrays a husband and wife brought together by it. Katherine Mansfield, Tobias Wolff and William Trevor explore the intricacies of long-term relationships, while Guy de Maupassant, Italo Calvino and T.C. Boyle convey the elemental force of love in extremely different ways.
Together these nineteen stories make an enticing gift for lovers at any stage of life.
