Publisher's Summary
Twelve short stories in verse by bestselling and award-winning authors that explore the highs and lows of love – romantic, platonic, familial, and self-love.
Love can be many things – all consuming, fleeting, vengeful, selfless, toxic, uplifting, and always, a core part of the human experience that leaves an indelible mark. This enchanting, genre-crossing anthology promises something for every listener, with unique characters, global settings, and a dazzling mixture of myth, historical, speculative, and contemporary fiction.
With this audiobook, get swept away by unexpected love blooming between two princes from enemy Mesoamerican nations in the 15th century, who'd rather make music rather than war; cheer for a timid bearded lady who was shunned by her family and runs away to find family, belonging, and safety at the circus during the 1800s; experience heartbreak as a girl says goodbye to her beloved dog; breathlessly watch a myth unfold as a siren bound to the water falls in love with a winged forest spirit, their love seemingly impossible from the start. Feel crushed as a girl loses not only her boyfriend but also her friend group after a bad breakup.
Love is complicated and this anthology invites listeners to lean into both the messiness and the joy of it all. Contributors include: Alexandra Alessandri, David Bowles, Melanie Crowder, Margarita Engle, Eric Gansworth, Robin Gow, Mariama Lockington, Laura Ruby, Padma Venkatraman, Jasmine Warga, Charles Waters, and Kip Wilson.
