| enduring love book: The Secrets of Enduring Love Meg John Barker, Jacqui Gabb, 2016-02-04 The Secrets of Enduring Love focuses on what couples actually do to maintain, nurture and nourish their relationships. The reader will be taken on a journey through different ways of doing relationships, focusing on the key themes which came out of the research: everyday acts of kindness and appreciation; the importance of home; communication and conflict management; sex and intimacy; incorporating others into the relationship (children, pets, friends, hobbies); and telling your own love story. One of the key messages from the research is that different things work for different people, and at different times in the relationship. For this reason the book focuses on the differnt practices that we might bring into our own relationships, helping us to recognise the small things which we may be already doing but which ordinarily go by unnoticed, and offering a helping hand to find out what works best for us. |

| enduring love book: The Penguin Book of Modern British Short Stories Malcolm Bradbury, 1988-02-25 This anthology is in many was a ‘best of the best’, containing gems from thirty-four of Britain's outstanding contemporary writers. It is a book to dip into, to read from cover to cover, to lend to friends and read again. It includes stories of love and crime, stories touched with comedy and the supernatural, stories set in London, Los Angeles, Bucharest and Tokyo. Above all, as you will discover, it satisfies Samuel Butler's anarchic pleasure principle: 'I should like to like Schumann's music better than I do; I daresay I could make myself like it better if I tried; but I do not like having to try to make myself like things; I like things that make me like them at once and no trying at all ...' |

| enduring love book: Posting the Male , 2022-06-08 The essays collected in Posting the Male examine representations of masculinity in post-war and contemporary British literature, focussing on the works of writers as diverse as John Osborne, Joe Orton, James Kelman, Ian Rankin, Carol Ann Duffy, Alan Hollinghurst, Ian McEwan, Graham Swift and Jackie Kay. The collection seeks to capture the current historical moment of ‘crisis’, at which masculinity loses its universal transparency and becomes visible as a performative gender construct. Rather than denoting just one fixed, polarised point on a hierarchised axis of strictly segregated gender binaries, masculinity is revealed to oscillate within a virtually limitless spectrum of gender identities, characterised not by purity and self-containment but by difference and alterity. As the contributors demonstrate, rather than a gender ‘in crisis’ millennial manhood is a gender ‘in transition’. Patriarchal strategies of man-making are gradually being replaced by less exclusionary patterns of self-identification inspired by feminism. Men have begun to recognise themselves as gendered beings and, as a result, masculinity has been set in motion. |
| enduring love book: Falling Blossom Momoko Williams, Peter Pagnamenta, 2010-08-31 Simon Winchester, author of A Crack in the Edge of the World and The Professor and the Madman: The essence of this inexpressibly beautiful story will remain with me, I believe, for the rest of my life. This exquisitely crafted account of the loves and lives of Arthur and Masa, Violet and Kiyoshi - such very ordinary names, yet names that conceal extraordinary passions and confusions - is a tone poem to duty and honour, courage and enduring passion, set against the fantastically rich recent histories of Japan and Ireland, England and France. It is a long time since I have read so moving and haunting a book This is the true story of an extraordinary love affair. When Captain Arthur Hart-Synnot, a disciplined, conservative officer, met Masa Suzuki, a bright, beautiful Japanese girl, when the British army posted him to Tokyo, he fell for her and within weeks they were living together. Arthur told her she was the 'supreme woman in the world' and they pledged they would love each other for the rest of their lives. But he could not tell the army about her, and they faced almost insuperable barriers of race and class. When he was recalled to London the question was whether Masa had, all the time, just been what expatriates referred to as 'a temporary wife', an exploited Madam Butterfly. Though separated for years at a time, and by huge distances, they remained devoted to each other. Based on a cache of over 800 letters found in Tokyo, the story is set against the wider history and the wars of the first half of the twentieth century. This is a record of enduring love and great loss, where events beyond Arthur and Masa's control dictate the final tragic outcome. |
| enduring love book: First Love, Last Rites Ian McEwan, 2011-02-11 Somerset Maugham Award winner: Dark early fiction by the author of Nutshell—“A splendid magician of fear” (The Village Voice Literary Supplement). Taut, brooding, and densely atmospheric, the stories here show us how murder can arise out of boredom, perversity from adolescent curiosity—and how sheer evil can become the solution to unbearable loneliness. These short fiction pieces from the early career of the New York Times–bestselling and Man Booker Prize–winning author of Atonement and On Chesil Beach are claustrophobic tales of childhood, twisted psychology, and disjointed family life as terrifying as anything by Stephen King—and finely crafted with a lyricism and an intensity that compels us to confront our secret kinship with what repels us. “A powerful talent that is both weird and wonderful.” —The Boston Sunday Globe “Ian McEwan’s fictional world combin[es] the bleak, dreamlike quality of de Chirico’s city-scapes with the strange eroticism of canvases by Balthus. Menace lies crouched between the lines of his neat, angular prose, and weird, grisly things occur in his books with nearly casual aplomb.” —The New York Times |
| enduring love book: The Enduring Kiss Massimo Recalcati, 2021-01-14 The kiss is the image that, perhaps more than any other, encompasses the beauty and poetry of love. Every love is required to maintain the kiss, to make it last. When they kiss, lovers carve out their hiding holes, finding their peace from war. When they kiss, the noise of the world is silenced, its laws broken, time is stolen from its normal continuity. They fall together in their distinct, embraced tongues. The kiss joins the tongue that declares love with the body of the lover. And the extinction of the kiss and, most importantly, of the desire to kiss one’s beloved announces the demise of love. In this short book, Massimo Recalcati – one of Italy’s leading intellectuals and bestselling authors – offers seven brief lessons on the mystery and miracle of love, from the serendipity of the first encounter to its end or its continuation over time, as mysterious and miraculous as the first encounter itself. |
| enduring love book: Standing Together Carlos R. Evans, Rosemarie Evans, Cecil Murphey, 2019 A true story of hope and courage in the face of astonishing challenges During his fourth deployment, US Marine Corps Sergeant Carlos Evans stepped on an IED--and the loss of both legs and his left hand was just the beginning of the struggle for his life. For the next two years, he and his wife, Rosemarie, went through the rehabilitation process together. As a nurse and mother of two young children, Rosemarie was used to caring for people, but the task of taking care of her triple-amputee husband brought new challenges every day. In addition to his limb loss, Carlos faced PTSD and developed an addiction to painkillers. He was sure Rosemarie's life would be better without him--and that it might have been better if he hadn't survived at all. But unlike the majority of marriages put under similar strain, Carlos and Rosemarie stayed together. With the help of family, friends, and--most importantly—a strong faith, they've built a solid marriage and discovered a ministry they never expected. By the hand of God, their story, which began in devastation, has turned into one that draws in and lifts up more people than either of them would ever have dreamed. Not only will disabled veterans and their loved ones find help here, Carlos and Rosemarie's captivating journey also speaks to those who long for stronger marriages, care for loved ones with disabilities, or are facing a new normal in their own lives, small or large. It is a powerful resource for leaning on God in the midst of life's great difficulties--and for finding ways that, through faith, profound loss can bring incredible blessing. |

Ah, I see I have alarmed you. Do not be frightened by my beard: I am a lover of America. I noticed that you were looking for something; more than looking, in fact you seemed to be on a mission, and since I am both a native of this city and a speaker of your language, I thought I might offer you my services as a bridge.” —from The Reluctant Fundamentalist |

In trademark crystalline prose, Jim Crace portrays a man taking stock of his life and looking into an uncertain future, while bearing witness to a community in the throes of great change. |
| enduring love book: What Love Is Carrie Jenkins, 2017-01-24 A rising star in philosophy examines the cultural, social, and scientific interpretations of love to answer one of our most enduring questions What is love? Aside from being the title of many a popular love song, this is one of life's perennial questions. In What Love Is, philosopher Carrie Jenkins offers a bold new theory on the nature of romantic love that reconciles its humanistic and scientific components. Love can be a social construct (the idea of a perfect fairy tale romance) and a physical manifestation (those anxiety- inducing heart palpitations); we must recognize its complexities and decide for ourselves how to love. Motivated by her own polyamorous relationships, she examines the ways in which our parameters of love have recently changed-to be more accepting of homosexual, interracial, and non-monogamous relationships-and how they will continue to evolve in the future. Full of anecdotal, cultural, and scientific reflections on love, What Love Is is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand what it means to say I love you. Whether young or old, gay or straight, male or female, polyamorous or monogamous, this book will help each of us decide for ourselves how we choose to love. |

| enduring love book: The Daniel Lawson Series - Volume 1 Fenella Ashworth, 2025-03-14 A steamy equestrian romance The ultimate erotica series I love the equestrian world you have created, it is totally convincing. Eloquent, humorous and sensual. I can't help but love your stories. This series should be filmed. Never mind Bridgerton! Give me Daniel Lawson any day! 5* Reviews This compilation contains the first four books in the multi-part Daniel Lawson series by Fenella Ashworth; the prequel Daniel Lawson: The Early Years, First Love, Second Chance, Perfect Stranger, Strangely Perfect and Feels Just Like Starting Over. Daniel Lawson: The Early Years (The Prequel) Long before the age of mobile phones, WiFi or even social media, Daniel Lawson was imprinted upon Emma's heart. Living a charmed life in an English village, her friends were close, her worries were few and her needs were simple: Daniel. The sexiest, coolest, most fascinating guy that Emma had ever known. Regularly thrown into each other's company, as much by design as by accident, their mutual admiration simmers naturally below the surface, biding its time, waiting for the right moment. Surely, it was inevitable that something must eventually happen between them, given enough opportunity. And then suddenly, time was something they no longer had. A story about lifelong friendships and that powerful, enduring first love that simply never leaves you, no matter how many years pass by. First Love, Second Chance Would you be tempted by the offer of a one-night stand with your first crush? Daniel Lawson, the upcoming star of British showjumping has returned to the UK after sixteen years abroad. Moving back to the area he grew up, Daniel becomes reacquainted with his childhood friends. Determined, uber-sexy but extremely complex, Daniel is single minded in his goal; to be selected to represent Great Britain in the World Equestrian Games. Reserved, competent and hard-working, Emma Martin, has held a secret flame for Daniel since they were kids. Throughout the years, no man could ever measure up to her adolescent fantasies of him. Over a drunken game of 'Truth or Dare' at a friend’s birthday party, Emma is forced to admit that she has never climaxed with a man. Daniel decides to issue a dare; allow him to try where others have failed. Perfect Stranger, Strangely Perfect Trudy certainly wasn't looking for love or even sex when the delectable Eddie strolled casually into her life. With a cheating boyfriend in her recent past and a string of bad chat up lines echoing in her head, Trudy was prepared to steer clear of men indefinitely. But something about Eddie intrigued her... Trudy is soon living on a diet of lust, desire, intoxicating sexual chemistry…and frustration, with Eddie seemingly intent on taking things slowly, or at least trying to. But as their relationship heats up, it becomes obvious that Eddie is hiding something. Can he trust Trudy enough to let her into his secret? Feels Just Like Starting Over High on elation from his best-friend's Olympic showjumping win, Tom returns home a day early to find his wife rather too enthusiastically enjoying carnal pleasures with another man. Experiencing grief and anguish so intense, he couldn't imagine feeling lower, Tom moves in with his closest friends, Emma and Daniel Lawson and swears off women (and particularly love) forever more. With their friendship, along with the support of his irrepressible sister Trudy and her boyfriend Eddie, Tom's fragile heart ever so slowly starts to repair. So when the gorgeous Abby literally drops into his life, Tom begins to wonder if his previous decision to forego love was a little too hasty. But will his interfering wife allow him to move on? Fenella Ashworth is a British author of contemporary steamy romance for 18+. |
