Description: Very Good. 8vo-over 7¾"-9¾" tall. There have been collections of New Yorker stories before, but this is the first one with a theme: Love. Roger Angell was a natural for the job of editing the book, since he was a fiction editor at The New Yorker for a long time. The writers are too numerous to name, but many of the greats are represented.

"True to New Yorker tradition, this collection of love stories is anything but sappy or schmaltzy. From writers both well-known and obscure, they span the spectrum of relationships - friends, lovers, singles, couples, parents, children - and are, by turns, humorous, heartbreaking, poignant, shocking, gentle and fierce. A must-have."
"My favorite book of short stories. Each story is a masterpiece and each is completely different from the next. Mytwo favorites were "How to Give the Wrong Impression" by Katherine Heiny--a story written in SECOND person--and "Yours" by Mary Robinson--a peice of short short fiction with a deep impact."
"My husband is an avid reader of the New Yorker so I bought this book for him years ago but he never read it. Obviously he's not a romantic! It's a great read especially if you're a fan of The New Yorker."
"This is a great collection of short pieces on the subject of love and all its complications. SO many famous writers contributed, and it was a fun book to pick up and put down during busy times."
