About
These are not conventional love stories. A middle-aged man goes alone to Paris for a piano recital…another visits his dying mistress in hospital. A woman in a tea-room begins a letter of complaint to a dating agency while another dreads the seventieth birthday party of her uncle, the black sheep of the family. These are stories about loneliness and loss, about disappointed hopes and hopeless dreams, about resentment and regret, about endings and in-betweens rather than beginnings. So they are not conventional love stories – but they are, in some way, stories about love.
