It's a many-splendored thing and the sweetest thing, it makes the world go 'round and is all you need—and, in nearly 30 stories, this book illustrates a few of love's myriad other possibilities. Meet Arnold Bennet's Claribel in a story of the same name, whose destiny is shaped by rain in its very falling, and John Galsworthy's Hubert Marsland who remembers "A Long-Ago Affair." The volume also includes works by such writers as Mary Shelley and Sylvia Plath, Thackeray and Graham Greene, Thomas Hardy and Aldous Huxley, Virginia Woolf and Elizabeth Bowen.
"Enthralling and revelatory … offer the best and most beautifully articulated examples which pinpoint 'the lineament of English love' over 200 years."—The Mail on Sunday
