Böcker av Shelley Valdez

What is love, anyhow? You can love your partner, your friend, your country, your dog, cat, rat, your local library, your family, yourself. You can love money, liquor, food, wilderness, or the dive bar on the corner. What does love make people do? What will people give for it? What will they steal?What We Talk About When We Talk About It is a literary exploration of the myriad faces of this powerful four-letter word.Poetry and prose by:Kelly Magee, Sage, MeeRee Orlandini, Erika Rasmussen, Anonymous, Woody Woodger, Lisa Dordal, Lawdenmarc Decamora, Lisa López Smith, Richard Weems, Lorna Wood, Sharon L.
