"Jealous of the Clouds is the first book I've read this author, but I will be looking for more from them. To me this is more like a thriller than a romance book, but I still loved this. I loved the characters and the story."

| This has always been one of my favorite all-time books. For such a thin volume (about 140 pages), it packs the wisdom of an epic into its few pages. That's the magic and the genius of James Purdy, whose literary output should be celebrated way more t ...more | |

“There are three possible parts to a date, of which at least two must be offered: entertainment, food, and affection. It is customary to begin a series of dates with a great deal of entertainment, a moderate amount of food, and the merest suggestion of affection. As the amount of affection increases, the entertainment can be reduced proportionately. When the affection IS the entertainment, we no longer call it dating. Under no circumstances can the food be omitted.”
