(With Literature.)
Consider how one falls in love: by fixating on certain attributes of the beloved. The way he looks in his brown cords. The way she flips her hair from her face. The flecks in her eyes, the twitch in his smile. We do not yet know the whole person, but we are lured by primal responses to a few details.

Who can forget the powerful moment when Chad Newsome appears on the balcony with Marie de Vionnet in 'The Ambassadors?' Or the first time one meets the golden Sebastian of Brideshead Revisited? Or the uber romantic figure of Frances Lymond of the Lymond Chronicles (all five books-took a year to read!) Lovers worth loving, who never leave you,who reappear at the turn of a page.
