An anthology of literary love stories--in a beautiful hardcover Pocket Classics edition--perfect for Valentine's Day.

Here are nineteen stories from a rich array of writers, and here is every kind of romantic entanglement: from the raw, erotic passion of D. H. Lawrence and Colette to the wickedly cynical comedy of Dorothy Parker and Roald Dahl, from the yearning of unrequited romantic illusions in F. Scott Fitzgerald's "Winter Dreams" to the agonizing madness of jealousy in Vladimir Nabokov's "That in Aleppo Once . . ." The objects of passion in these stories range from a glamorous silent-movie starlet in Elizabeth Bowen's haunting "Dead Mabelle" and a faithful ghost in Yasunari Kawabata's "Immortality" to a heart surgeon in Margaret Atwood's "Bluebeard's Egg" who spends his days penetrating the mysteries of the human heart but who seems oddly emotionally opaque himself. Jhumpa Lahiri plumbs the despair of a husband and wife sundered by tragedy while Lorrie Moore movingly portrays a couple 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 portray the elemental force of love in extremely different ways.

As alluring, moving, and intoxicating as its timeless theme, this collection makes an enticing gift for lovers at any stage of life.

Good product!
Color: Gold
This is nicer than I expected honestly and a good value for the money. Trims amazing, the shave isn’t as close as a razor but it helps in a pinch! Charging takes forever but then it also runs on that battery for days!

Versatile trimer
This electric trimmer is very easy to use and, best of all, it includes a great attachment for trimming nose hairs. Everything feels high quality, it doesn’t irritate the skin, and it’s also very powerful.

No More Chewbacca Legs!
Color: Gold
Tons of research was done to find the best one for me. READ the instruction booklet and use common sense when using on your bikini area. ( There's ALWAYS that ONE review..) I like this a lot. Recovering from surgery and can't get into the bath for a regular shave, so being able to use this on my legs DRY was a dream! Now that it's warmer out, my legs no longer look like Chewbacca! Lol! Oh! It was already charged so that was great. I like that you can use your usb to charge this. No pain, but again, use your head, don't be digging this into your skin, tread LIGHTLY in sensitive areas.

Don’t buy!
Color: Green
I purchased in 2025 and I’ve barely used it. Now it doesn’t even turn on. Very disappointing!
