	Aspects of Love (novel) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Aspects of Love is a novel by author David Garnett centering on the loves of a young soldier named Alexis Golightly, his uncle George Dillingham, and the beautiful actress Rose Vibert from whom neither man could escape.

	A. Classsen: Luise Rinser's Novel: Abelard's Love
		The novel is based on this highly curious correspondence and on the information contained in Abelard's autobiography, Historia calamitatum, but the focus rests on Astrolabe's struggle to understand his parents' love for each other and their son whom they had had raised by relatives without revealing their identity to him.
		Astrolabe loves and hates the older man, and he explicitly admits his incestuous jealousy of this man who was a rival for him in every sense of the word, a rival in matters of love, a rival in matters of intellect, and a rival in matters of politics.
		By turning to the famous couple Abelard and Heloise in her novel, Rinser outlines a model of human society in which love gains the highest priority because it is no longer equated with simple sweetness and delight, but identified as a fundamental force of terrifying but glorious consequences.

	Enduring Love: A Novel (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		Brilliant and compassionate, this is a novel of love, faith, and suspense, and of how life can change in an instant.
		The "love" that the de Clerambault subject experiences, is vice-like, sick, and enduring, with religious overtones.
		Ironically, the real love that the existed between the protagonist, Joe Rose and his mate, Clarissa, was consensual, and, by contrast, fragile, unsupported by religious sanction.

	The End of the Novel of Love
		In a thousand novels of love-in-the-Western-world the progress of feeling between a woman of intelligence and a man of will is charted through a struggle that concludes itself when the woman--at last--melts into romantic longing and the deeper need for union.
		Diana of the Crossways--published in 1885--gives us a protagonist for whom love is the enemy the way Lawrence understood it to be the enemy, only this time we have the information from a woman in whom the need to own her soul is more imperative than the need to love.
		Love, he concluded, was not a benign experience: not for him, and certainly not for her.

	Bookreporter.com - LOVE by Toni Morrison
		Love in its many heartfelt forms --- seductive, romantic, obsessive, misplaced, conjugal, courtly, honorable, devotional, intimate, affectionate, sentimental, abiding and faithful --- are catalogued in a concatenation of elegant structure.
		LOVE is a complicated story, the kind of multi-themed, multi-layered, multi-generational novel Morrison is known for.
		LOVE is about a man named Bill Cosey and the women who jostle for his affections and whose enmity perseveres through several decades of backstabbing and recriminations.

	Direct Textbooks Price Comparison for ISBN 1400078474: Love: A Novel (Vintage) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		Granted we all may have different definitions of love, but Morrison's is totally awful (quit reading if you don't want info on the end of the book): two women who were friends until age 11 spend the rest of their lives hating each other.
		Love is a telling novel, one that, at first, is a little hard to get a hold of because Morrison doesn't spell everything out for you.
		Love is the thing most of us shape our lives and identities around - and here we meet a host of rich and full characters who have built or are building their identites because of the love they have, they have had or they have never gotten.

	The History of Love: A Novel (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		Nicole Krauss's The History of Love is a hauntingly beautiful novel about two characters whose lives are woven together in such complex ways that even after the last page is turned, the reader is left to wonder what really happened.
		It is truly a history of love: a tale brimming with laughter, irony, passion, and soaring imaginative power.
		The History of Love has a plot complex enough for a very good mystery, some remarkable writing in its excerpts from the novel within a novel, an endearing teenager, and a happy ending of a sort, but one which makes artistic sense.

	Love, etc. : Novel by Julian Barnes, reviewed by Emily Banner (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		Love, etc. is the sequel to 1991’s Talking It Over, and readers of the earlier work will have some idea as to what awaits them in this one.
		The book’s title comes from his theory that life consists of love on the one hand, and everything else on the other, and that the world can be divided into two camps: those who live for love, and those who live for the rest.
		Which might not be that bad; Love, etc. is a richer and more dynamic book than its predecessor, the writing sharper and the monologue form used with more flair.

	Essay: "McEwan uses a variety of writing genre in the novel 'Enduring Love'. This mix of genre is one of the most ...
		By close reference to the text, explore the range and effectiveness of this mix." In 'Enduring Love' the most prominent genres are love, thriller and the detective genre.
		We are captivated by Joe's love for Clarissa, Jed's love for Joe and the development of these characters as the plot unfolds.
		The structure of 'Enduring Love' is very much like that of a detective novel; starting off with the main incident of the plot, or the starting incident and then unfolding and developing in stages throughout the story, and resulting in a more or less stable conclusion.

	Essays in Love (On Love) - Alain de Botton
		On Love was his first novel (Essays in Love, as the British original had it) -- though there are also similarly themed later novels, Kiss and Tell and The Romantic Movement.
		Love preoccupies the young author, as well it might, and though a big subject to tackle, De Botton tackles well.
		Other people's love affairs are often not the most interesting of subjects, especially when one deals with the everyday minutiae, but for most of the book De Botton keeps us hooked with his interesting thoughts on love's many aspects.

	Isabel Allende - Of Love and Shadows
		This is a novel about institutional violence, of the sort perpetrated by authoritarian states; it is about human rights and their loss, and the difficulty of documenting that loss, so as to move the collective conscience of the world.
		AllendeÕs second novel will undoubtedly reap as much acclaim as her first, “The House of the Spirits.” Melodramatic, serious, and unfunny, it is as the end of all burdensome dictatorships should be.
		Now, with her second novel, Of Love and Shadows, Allende has demonstrated that she is, beyond question, one of the great Latin American writers of today.

	Amazon.com: Love Again: Novel, A: Books: Doris Lessing (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		Doris Lessing explores the meaning of love, not just infatuation, but also the loves of friendship, marital love and brotherly love and the their incumbent duties, as well as the (ab)use of love for personal gain or entertainment.
		It may be true, as some reviewers suggest, that people who have been untouched by love may not appreciate this book as much as those who have, but I think anyone interested in the meaning of love in all its aspects and across generations can get a lot out of reading this book.
		"Love, Again" is one of Doris Lessing's "later" novels and it focuses on an older protagonist caught in the snares of romantic love.

Those entering the world of carnival freaks described by narrator Olympia Binewski, a bald, humpbacked albino dwarf, will find no escape from a story at once engrossing and repellent, funny and terrifying, unreal and true to human nature.
		Dunn's vivid, energetic prose, her soaring imagination and assured narrative skill fuse to produce an unforgettable tale.
		Second is the story of a mother, Olympia, watching over a daughter that doesn't know her, a daughter born with a tail who meets up with a woman who wants to "fix" her by cutting off the tail.

	Haunted by Love / A novel revives horror director F.W. Murnau
		Murnau belonged to the great generation of filmmakers, the Lucases and Spielbergs of their day, who laid the foundations of cinema both at the famous UFA Studios in Germany and in Hollywood.
		Love affairs occupy a significant part of Murnau's attention, especially his prolonged infatuation with the Polynesian boy who assisted on his final film, ``Tabu,'' a troubled, largely unsuccessful collaboration with the documentary filmmaker Robert Flaherty.
		In using Murnau's life as the basis for a novel, Shepard often draws the line between fact and fiction so narrowly that one cannot help wondering, ``But did that really happen?'' That is rarely the best reaction to have to a novel.
