All for Love: A Romantic Anthology

By Laura Stoddart

Book Overview

Shakespeare was blinded by love, Dorothy Parker felt the heartache of jilted lovers, Sappho saw the sensuality in love, and Byron despaired that there is little to be said about a happy marriage. From the artist whose illustrations charmed readers in The Sweet Life and Off the Beaten Path comes a delightful and amusing lover's-eye view of human behavior. Laura Stoddart has selected and elegantly illustrated this collection of brief, witty quotations from men and womenwho have experienced love firsthand. All for Love is a heartwarming treat for those reveling in love for the first time, contemplating marriage, celebrating an anniversary . . . or putting the whole business behind them.
