Conversation With Love Tetyana Denford

Love is like
being just the right amount of drunk when you decide
whether setting fire to your manuscript is a funny idea
or a dangerous one
but all you want to do is watch your burning words float up to the moon
so you can decide which ones you want to hold onto.

In this third book in a series of themed 'Conversation' books, we see how quiet, revolutionary, and world-altering love is, but also how wonderfully ordinary it is too. These pieces reveal the messy and joyous parts of romantic love, parental love, self-love, broken love, lost love, unrequited love...and how much we are conditioned to only see one side of it. Love contains strength and grief, and feeling it all allows us to find the true, deep purpose of it.

In "Conversation With Love", Tetyana tries to talk about how all of us- especially nowadays in a fast-moving world- crave not only connection, but genuine love, so we can all be seen, heard, and supported. Humans are built to hope, no matter how often they get love taken away from them, and that's what makes love so extraordinary; we try, and we talk, and we keep loving.

Tetyana's writing has been called "delicate and empowering all at once", "lyrical and friendly, like music", "completely heartbreaking", and "a beautiful study of connection, humanity, and how we can all learn from each other's stories."
