We all love love. These are the books—most of them unexpected—that make you feel it all over again, from the first delirious thrill to the ache of separation.
Important Artifacts and Personal Property from the Collection of Lenore Doolan and Harold Morris, Including Books, Street Fashion, and Jewelry
A Quirky, Realistic Love Story Narrated by Gifts and Objects in Common
This on-again, off-again long-distance romance is told in the form of a painstakingly assembled faux auction catalog, resulting in not her version of the story, not his version of the story, but theirs—told through the Post-it notes that Lenore and Harold left for each other during their relationship; sunglasses they purchased on vacations together; the quirky, you-know-me-so-well gifts they exchanged on holidays and "just because." These two seem like the perfect match...until they aren't. But in the meaning-infused detritus accumulated during their years together, we recognize ourselves and our relationships, down to the inscribed paperbacks and hand-written Valentine's Day dinner menus.
