It is remarkable that romantic love is so seldom linked to scholarship on sexuality. Finally in this wonderful collection we have a group of original, timely, and savvy essays that dare to speak of the intimacies of love and passion. The authors represent a broad array of anthropologists who combine feisty theorizing with deliciously contoured ethnography from across the globe. This is a stimulating volume bringing together compact studies of late-modern love. --Matthew Gutmann, author of Fixing Men: Sex, Birth Control, and AIDS in Mexico
