Most beautiful love story in literature

Ania · 2005-06-12 10:51:12

My favourite love story is "Tristan and Isold" (by Gottfried of Strasbourg)- one of the Kind Arthur legends. What about you?

I've always been particularly fond of "A Sentimental Education" by Flaubert.

BTW: Chapelizod (Dublin) is named after Iosolde.

The one in last of the Mohicians film is good, but since it wasn't like that in the book it don't really count.

It's not a love story. It's a slagging of bourgeois morality and values.

I quite like Far from the Maddening Crowd . Strong females can't be too far wrong.

Probably a bit of a cliché but Love in the Time of Cholera! Incredible.
