Lost Love - Short Stories: Authors reveal the tragey of losing a loved one

Written by Henry James, Anton Chekhov, Algernon Blackwood and 8 more

Narrated by Richard Mitchley, Laurel Lefkow and Eric Meyers

Love. Perhaps the one word solution for everything. An emotion, a state of mind that we strive for, search for. A wondrous force that binds, inspires, and a force that can spin out of control; unbalanced and fragile. Love reflects, changes and embraces us all.

In this series we explore the many facets of love through literary talents that span both time and country. Having found Love what happens when we lose it. Of course this can be for many reasons but the results almost aways bring heartbreak and perhaps an unendurable loss. Pain, grief, loneliness, many emotions take root within our hearts. Our classic authors have stories that describe all these feelings and much more.

Henry James

Henry James (1843-1916) was an American author of novels, short stories, plays, and non-fiction. He spent most of his life in Europe, and much of his work regards the interactions and complexities between American and European characters. Among his works in this vein are The Portrait of a Lady (1881), The Bostonians (1886), and The Ambassadors (1903). Through his influence, James ushered in the era of American realism in literature. In his lifetime he wrote 12 plays, 112 short stories, 20 novels, and many travel and critical works. He was nominated three times for the Noble Prize in Literature.
