Summary

This is not your usual memoir – much less a typical love story. Loveland is about the unfolding of unmet expectations, of shattered childhood dreams, of tenderness found unexpectedly; it is the uncovering of different layers of one’ s self, relationship after relationship. The rationale for understanding the engineering of love, in its infinite nuances, comes through the framework of literature. Books shape our perceptions: their characters set parameters, their stories create paradigms, and we live by them forever. If you’ re interested in a different vision of happily-ever-after, this is the book for you.

Author Biography

Susan Ostrov holds an Ivy League doctoral degree and a long career as a Professor of English. She has previously published four scholarly books on the subject of women and their relationship to romantic love. Combining her expertise in classic romance novels with a personal account of her own experiences as a romantic woman, Loveland is part wry memoir and part serious cultural critique.
