di Arnold Bennett (Autore)

Good Press, 2019

In "The Price of Love," Arnold Bennett explores the complexities of human relationships through a series of poignant and interwoven short stories. Set against the backdrop of the early 20th century, Bennett employs a realistic literary style characterized by keen psychological insight and social observation, reflecting the values and conflicts of his time. Each narrative delves into the intricate dynamics of love'Äîbe it romantic, familial, or platonic'Äîhighlighting the sacrifices and moral dilemmas faced by the characters as they navigate their desires and societal expectations, thus providing a rich commentary on the costs associated with emotional engagement. Arnold Bennett, an influential British novelist and playwright from the early 1900s, was deeply embedded in the cultural currents of his time, notably the shifts occurring in social norms and the burgeoning urbanization of England. His own experiences in the industrial city of Stoke-on-Trent, coupled with his fascination for the human condition, informed his literary output, questioning and illuminating the often-unrecognized emotional struggles within individuals and their relationships. This depth of understanding is lucidly evident in "The Price of Love." I highly recommend "The Price of Love" to readers interested in a profound exploration of the human experience and the fine line between love and sacrifice. Bennett'Äôs masterful storytelling and nuanced character portrayals provide enduring insights into the various dimensions of affection and commitment, making this collection both enlightening and relatable.
