I stumbled upon this book the first time in the library. I sat in the back of the library and read all day.For four two years now I have been trying to hunt this book down. Not only do they pleasure us with true romance but they dont mind telling those beautiful stories of same sex couples either. I was just in awe of the amazing group of people choosen to be the focus - they are some of the most talented forces who lived the reality of that fine dividing line between genious and insane. I felt somewhat honered to be invited into their private lives for a while.All in all it is one of those books that you feel the better for reading. And it is wonderful to read with your loved one.
Excellent Intro to famous lovers in history!

I first read this book while still in high school. But I never forgot the stories, especially the one of Heloise and Abelard. They became so real to me that I then started one of the best educations of my life just looking out for anything I could find on these wonderful people and their loves. An excellent buy, I highly recommend if it can be found.
