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.
