The Language of Love and Other Stories is about all types of love relationships: the ones that exist between parent and child as well as between generations, the bonds that grow between new lovers as well as those that exist between long-settled couples. The 20-story collection explores all the stages of love: the tenuous yet exciting beginning, the calmer, more mundane phases, the uncertain periods, and finally the ending?sometimes anticipated, other times devastatingly unexpected. It's about whom one loves, how one loves, and what one does when the love is reciprocated, rejected or over.
