Synopsis
Love can be surprising. Love can be heartbreaking. Love can be an art. But love is the singular emotion that all humans rely on most . . . and crave endlessly, no matter what the cost. Isaiah Berlin's translation reproduces in finely wrought English the original story's simplicity, lyricism, and sensitivity.
