Definitely not erotica.These are stories about longing, devotion, obsession, illusion, sacrifice—and the moments we later recognize as love, whether or not they lasted.Sometimes the spark burns out by morning.Sometimes it burns everything down.And sometimes—maddeningly, miraculously—it lights the pilot flame that stays on for a lifetime.All of these all-too-human emotions live here.nteresting podcast Hosted on Acast.
