Married Love is a masterful collection of short fiction from one
of today's most accomplished storytellers. These tales showcase the
qualities for which Tessa Hadley has long been praised: her humor,
warmth, and psychological acuity; her powerful, precise, and
emotionally dense prose; her unflinching examinations of family
relationships. Here are stories that range widely across
generations and classes, exploring the private and public lives of
unforgettable characters: a young girl who haunts the edges of her
parents' party; a wife released by the sudden death of her
film-director husband; an eighteen-year-old who insists on marrying
her music professor, only to find herself shut out from his
secrets. In this stunning collection, Hadley evokes worlds that
expand in the imagination far beyond the pages, capturing domestic
dramas, generational sagas, wrenching love affairs and epiphanies,
and distilling them to remarkable effect.
