"Perhaps," says Kavanaugh, "life’s only tragedy is never to know a pure and unconditional love. To give such is finally to be alive, to receive such is to be as gods ... Erotic love is a much ignored sacrament and a unique contact with god."

All the passion, romance and tenderness, as well as the humor and pain of love unfold in this beautiful new edition of Kavanaugh’s favorite love poems.  Men and women of any age, will find herein the perfect gift, on the occasion, celebrating the expression of love… “Love grew like some mystic fire around my heart…”
