Letters to the End of Love by Yvette Walker

4.0

A lovely meditation on love, in the form of letters between three couples from different eras and places. The structure took me a little while to settle into - a few tenuous links between the stories had me looking for deeper connections which weren't there - but I eventually realised that the three stories were only thematically linked. In each, people are facing the end of love - through illness, death or estrangement, and the letters they write to each other dig into their rich, messy, passionate experiences with each other and with life, as well as into the tiny, ordinary details that make up a relationship. It's impressively done.
