They are both married with children, and for the most part, they are happy. On almost the same day, Anna, a psychiatrist, crosses paths with Yves, a writer, while Louise, a lawyer, meets Anna’s analyst, Thomas. Love at first sight is still possible for those into their forties and long married. But when you have already mapped out a life path, a passionate affair can come at a high price. For our four characters, their lives are unexpectedly turned upside down by the deliciously inconvenient arrival of love. For Anna, meeting Yves has brought a flurry of excitement to her life and made her question her values, her reliable husband, and her responsibilities to her children. For Louise, a successful career woman in a stable and comfortable marriage, her routine is uprooted by the youthful passion she feels for Thomas. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThought-provoking, sophisticated, and, above all, amusing, \u003ci\u003eEnough About Love\u003c\/i\u003e captures the euphoria of desire through tender and unflinching portraits of husbands, wives, and lovers.","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57484096471413,"sku":"9781635425970","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781635425970.jpg?v=1786266128"}],"url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/collections\/author-herve-le-tellier.oembed","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
