"When it comes to love, there are a million… theories to explain it. But when it comes to love stories, things are simpler. A love story can never be about full possession. Love stories depend on disappointment, on unequal births and feuding families, on matrimonial boredom and at least one cold heart. Love stories, nearly without exception, give love a bad name. It is perhaps only in reading a love story (or in writing one) that we can simultaneously partake of the ecstasy and agony of being in love without paying a crippling emotional price. I offer this book, then, as a cure for lovesickness and an antidote to adultery. Read these love stories in the safety of your single bed. Let everybody else suffer."--Jeffrey Eugenides, from the introduction to MY MISTRESS'S SPARROW IS DEAD. "Eugenides offers a perfect Valentine's Day gift for lovers of literary fiction. One of the best anthologies of recent years, as well as commanding proof that its editor is as expert a reader as he is a novelist."--Kirkus Reviews. "The wonder of MY MISTRESS'S SPARROW IS DEAD is that it manages to capture a deep as well as broad range of this funny thing called love. By focusing on literary merit, Eugenides has produced a treasury worth holding dear."--Christian Science Monitor. Pristine hardcover w/brilliant corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding, no jacket as issued.
