Add to basketPaperback. Lessons in Love is a luminous, deeply human anthology that explores love not as an abstract ideal, but as something lived-day by day, breath by breath, choice by choice.Across essays, poems, stories, and reimagined fairy tales, these pages reveal love in its many forms: inherited through culture and food, forged in grief and illness, discovered in unexpected encounters, and sustained through devotion, humor, sacrifice, and hope. Love appears here as nourishment rather than words, as presence rather than perfection, as anaction taken even when the cost is high. You will encounter voices that speak of immigration and belonging, parenthood and loss, desire and devotion, resilience after heartbreak, and the quiet ache of wanting to be seen. You'll witness love offered freely, from a stranger with nothing to spare, from a daughter honoring her roots, from partners choosing joy again after pain, from lovers pledging themselves not just in passion, but in patience. Some pieces will make you smile. Others may leave you breathless, reflective, or tender in ways you didn't expect.Together, they ask a gentle but profound question: What if love isn't something we fall into, but something we practice?Curated and introduced by Jill L. Ferguson, founder of Let's Talk About Love SPC, Lessons in Love invites readers to slow down, pay attention, and recognize love where it alreadyexists, in small gestures, enduring bonds, fleeting moments, messiness, and courageous acts of giving. This is not a book about perfect love, but about real love. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
