Summary

Love.  Perhaps the one word solution for everything.  An emotion, a state of mind that we strive for, search for.  A wondrous force that binds, inspires, and a force that can spin out of control; unbalanced and fragile.  Love reflects, changes and embraces us all.    
 
In this series we explore the many facets of love through literary talents that span both time and country.  By a choice of vows each undertakes to stay with the other through the good times and the bad. And most probably there will be plenty of both and much in between.  But the union of marriage comes in many shades and hues, some balanced, some destined to last a lifetime and others set to fizzle out or stumble to an ill-mannered conclusion in separation or divorce and, of course, death.  In this volume our literary friends take on all manner of marriages and deliver stories that reveal every face and every facet of what marriage really is.
