Richard Klein of Cornell University explains that the way we view love really began with love poems in the 13th century — an illusion.

Act One. Before and After.

Richard Bausch reads his story Letter to the Lady of the House.

Act Two. I Met Him in the Yogurt Store, But Now He's Not My Leader of the Pack.

Linda Howard and Richard Bloom, in Boca Raton Florida, had been married years when she started flirting with another man.

Act Three. Without.

Poet Donald Hall reads about his wife Jane Kenyon, who contracted leukemia, went through treatment, and died. His book is also called Without.
