en Limba Engleză Paperback – 19 feb 2019
'Nobody has ever measured, not even poets, how much the heart can hold.'
Zelda Fitzgerald

Love is not a singular concept.

In this collection, seven award-winning authors explore seven concepts of love: from Philautia, self-love, to Agape, love for humanity; and from Storge, a natural affection for family, to Mania, a frenzied, obsessive love.

This edition contains the winning short story from the SceptreLoves competition.

'Together [the stories] assert that love is more heartbreaking and transforming than the word necessarily conveys'
Observer

'All seven score an outright win in the battle to make the ethereal real.'
