"You have to be very fond of men. Very, very fond. You have to be very fond of them to love them. Otherwise they're simply unbearable." - Marguerite Duras
This anthology of vignettes about the course of love seeks to bring to the surface the moments and scenes, memories and feelings experienced by the many faces of love. The Kissing Lessons gives us something to talk about -- a little mystery to figure out. Let's talk about love: loving, being loved, and being love
But, as Shakespeare wrote in A Midsummer Night's Dream, "The course of true love never did run smooth."
Fascinated by the movement of desire through Myth, literature, lyrics, religions, history, and shared experience -- and loving any good love story that arrests the heart and warrants a good sized cry towel -- I am a hopeless romantic at heart. But also a heady academic with a penchant for the feminine divine, who is rooted in a darling body wrought with emotions and feelings and perceptions of the vast and interpersonal relationships of the world, and effervescently intrigued by the dissolution of the fuzzy boundaries of self and other.
