\ud83d\udca1 Love stories are a dime a dozen, but stories that explore the intricacies, <\/strong>complexities, and dangers of love are few and far between.<\/strong> American author and celebrated literary figure Lily King is certainly no stranger to the latter, and her latest work, Heart the Lover<\/a>, offers a brilliant dissection of what it means to love, lose, and \u2014 most importantly \u2014 be human.<\/p>\n

The plot: <\/strong>Our narrator \u2014 a senior-year writer nicknamed Jordan \u2014 falls in with Sam and Yash, two classmates living in a professor\u2019s mansion off-campus. Shared literary passion and evenings reading ancient poetry bind the three quickly, and Jordan and Sam soon become romantically entangled. But class divides and Sam's failure to truly see her strain the relationship as Jordan feels a mutual pull toward Yash. As one relationship ends and another begins, the trio\u2019s bond is irrevocably damaged \u2014 and each faces a choice that means leaving someone behind. Then three decades pass.<\/p>\n

What we loved:<\/strong> Written in the first person in a stream-of-consciousness style, the novel essentially functions as a memory vault \u2014 one that operates on a non-linear trajectory, oscillating between past and present; euphoria and despair. King\u2019s prose is tight, intimate, beautiful yet grounded. There is no pretense, and the reader is presented with the narrator\u2019s most intimate and unvarnished thoughts. The 250-page novel is also a love letter to the art of writing and literature \u2014 with a slew of poetry and literary references scattered throughout. <\/p>\n

Heart the Lover may be about love \u2014 but it\u2019s as far from a romance as can be.<\/strong> The author dexterously explores grief, mortality, loss, and nostalgia, making for a compact read that is impactful. Despite functioning as both a prequel and a sequel to King\u2019s 2020 hit Writers & Lovers<\/a>, Heart the Lover is written as a standalone that doesn\u2019t require readers to have explored its predecessor \u2014 in fact, we only realized the connection embarrassingly too late. <\/p>\n

The verdict: <\/strong>We teared up several times while reading Heart the Lover \u2014 do with that information what you will. Despite its relative brevity \u2014 we finished the book in just two sittings \u2014 it felt like a world unto itself, an entire lifetime boiled down in the most devastatingly beautiful way. While the first half of the novel may drag at times, the latter half is utterly gripping. If you\u2019ve got a knack for literary fiction that incessantly tugs at one\u2019s heartstrings, Heart the Lover needs to be on your to-be-read list. <\/p>\n

WHERE TO GET IT-<\/strong> You can keep an eye out for a restock of the paperback edition at Diwan<\/a> and Bookspot<\/a>, get the eBook on Amazon<\/a>, or listen to the audiobook on Storytel<\/a> \u2014 which is how we enjoyed the novel. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
