Features: Love is beautiful, love is noble. The desire for and pursuit of love are almost as old as human history, and the celebration of love is as enduring as literary history. "The magpie sings on the river isle, / A fair maiden, graceful and shy, / A gentle man's ideal mate." For thousands of years, this verse has been celebrated across China, while love songs renowned overseas hold their own charm. This book is a collection of love's waves from the vast ocean of English literature. From 17th-century England to 1970s America, from classics like Shakespeare to bestsellers like Seagull, the melody of love never fades. At the end of the book, a bilingual reference bibliography is provided, serving as an important resource for English learners and offering readers who wish to read the full texts a chance.
