Sad Love - Short Stories: Threes a crowd, sometimes with deadly consequences

by Joseph Conrad, Ivan Turgenev, Rabindranath Tagore

Overview

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. When love’s flaws begin to stretch and amplify then heartbreak must surely follow. Love requires not just yearning and devotion but commitment and protection of an ideal. When that crumbles love finds pain, being in love becomes more difficult. And what our literary greats share with us in this difficult volume brings that truth home.

About the Author

Best known for his novella Heart of Darkness, Joseph Conrad (1857–1924) was a Polish–British author. Although not a native English speaker, Conrad came to be regarded as one of the greatest novelists to write in the English language. He revolutionized the English novel with books such as The Secret Agent, Nostromo, and Typhoon. Before publishing his first novel, Almayer's Folly, in 1895, Joseph Conrad spent almost 20 years working mostly at sea as a merchant sailor.
