Love Is War by George Stade

Love is War is as hard, clear and symmetrical (and irrefutable) as a proposition in geometry: the area equals the base times the altitude. The 4 corners of the parallelogram are Chuck Lockhart, Claire McCoy and spouses. Diagonals get crossed.
“The most striking and pleasurable feature of this very pleasurable book is the confident lilt of the voice—the prose sings itself and even has several refrains where the reader can hum alongBut it’s not only lyrical—it’s also violently physical, sexy and—well, read it! You’re in for an unusual treat.”—Rachel Hadas
