Introduction<br > It is a short word, but it contains all: it means the body, the soul, the life,<br > the entire being. We feel it as we feel the warmth of the blood, we breathe<br > it as we breathe the air, we carry it in ourselves as we carry our thoughts.<br > Nothing more exists for us. It is not a word; it is an inexpressible state<br > lndleated by four letters...<br >Maupassant, in this passage from Our Hearts, is pretty confident<br >that he can define love, but in the end he decides that language<br >,is ,inadequate. It is certainly true that, as a noun, love remains<br >.resolutely abstract. As a verb, it has forfeited some of its potency since<br >Maupassant~s time, being forced, increasingly, to do the work that<br >qike* once did. We can love chocolate bars and Neighbours, gardening<br >and football; whereas loss, so often associated in our minds with love,<br >seems to have none of love s elusiveness and ambiguity. The word<br >itself, partic~arly when spoken, has a dying fall: its very sound is<br >desolate,<br > The stories in thts collection, diverse in form, style and content, all<br >deal, at some level, with aspects of this inexpressible state indicated<br >by four letters , and of its loss. I did not want to confine myself to<br >romantic love only, nor to stories in which love and loss is the overt<br > subject matter (although in several of the stories it is). Love, I was<br > reminded while 1 was reading for this book, can be as powerful an<br > absence as it is a presence: never to have known love, never to have<br > given or received it, never to have experienced its Joys or suffered its<br > pains - this is probably the worst loss of all.<br > Dear Catherine, 1 am so glad you came before it was dark. [says<br > Mrs lngral~, in Elizabeth Taylor s story The Ambush ] Her seemingly<br > nte~ningless phrases were often found, later, to have some meaning<br > alter all,<br >
