The perfect gift—in any amount—with that personal touch of classic old world charm.
Special, late addition to January. What is love? How is romantic love sparked, pursued, won and lost? John Bowe and a group of collaborators traveled the U.S. conducting interviews with these questions in mind, and together have produced Us: Americans Talk About Love (Faber and Faber). The author of previous books—Gig and Nobodies: Modern American Slave Labor and the Dark Side of the Global Economy—John Bowe served as editor for this project. "This gaggle of voices from all walks of life will have you giggling, crying and muttering to yourself in alarmingly rapid succession ... A central truth soon emerges from this tapestry of human desire: like the eternal city of Rome, the ruins of ancient, formative love often stand in plain sight alongside the most recent annexes of our emotional landscape." - Elle. John Bowe is a recipient of the J. Anthony Lukas Award. Also expected to be on hand to tonight is Diana Briggs, one of several project collaborators.
