How Much the Heart Can Hold: the perfect alternative Valentine's gift: Seven Stories on Love Carys Bray

'Nobody has ever measured, not even poets, how much the heart can hold.' Zelda FitzgeraldLove is not a singular concept. In this collection, seven award-winning authors explore seven concepts of love: from Philautia, self-love, to Agape, love for humanity; and from Storge, a natural affection for family, to Mania, a frenzied, obsessive love. Seven authors; seven short stories; seven flashes of love. This paperback edition of How Much the Heart Can Hold includes the winning short story from the SceptreLoves short story Prize.

How Much the Heart Can Hold: the perfect alternative Valentine's gift Bewertungen

With prose that is occasionally astonishing, these stories muddy the waters of the literature on love in the best possible way. * Financial Times *
Startlingly original stories * Sunday Express S Magazine *
All seven [stories] score an outright win in the battle to make the ethereal real. * Country Life *
Together they assert that love is more heart-breaking and transforming than the word necessarily conveys. * Observer *
