Publisher Description

“Funny, touching and infused with wonder, as all love stories should be.”—San Francisco Examiner

The iconic tale of love and loss that has touched the hearts of millions, Love Story has become one of the most adored novels of our time. It has sold more than twenty-one million copies worldwide and became a blockbuster film starring Ryan O'Neal and Ali McGraw. It is the story that told the world, “Love means never having to say you’re sorry.”

This is the story of Oliver Barrett IV, a rich jock from a stuffy WASP family on his way to a Harvard degree and a career in law, and Jenny Cavilleri, a wisecracking working-class beauty studying music at Radcliffe.

Opposites in nearly every way, Oliver and Jenny are kindred spirits from vastly different worlds. Their attraction to each other is immediate and powerful, and together they share a love that defies everything.

This is their story—a story of two young people and a love so uncompromising it will bring joy to your heart and tears to your eyes.

"Ah! Always a pleasure to re-visit this classic boy-meets-girl story. The "twists" may seem cliche and trivial but it still works. There is something in the simple story telling which keeps you hooked. This is certainly the foundation from which sprung all modern love stories- books and movies alike. Lovable and strictly unforgetable!"

    " "Love means never having to say you're sorry..." WHAT A LOAD OF CRAP. You can totally tell this was written by a man. UGH! "

    " It makes you wonder, would this book become a bestseller today. A likeable story, but every page in the book is predictable and cliched. Maybe this was the trendsetter for similar novels that we see today from authors like Nicholas Sparks. All characters are without any flaw, but tragedy strikes only the virtuous. Duh..What an innovative idea!!!! "

    " Not sure why it was #1 on NYT bestseller for 9 months. They speak derogatorily to each other, which I found unappealing. I did not see anything special about this book. Plus, when the doctor tells Oliver that Jenny is dying, he keeps the news from her! That pisses me off. "

    " Oh why oh why did I give up precious hours of my life to read this? Never mind that I was a teenager who had nothing else to do. The only redeeming part is that after reading it, I knew that the Mormon romance novel Charly was a complete rip-off. Oh, my wasted youth. "
