Helena and John fall madly and desperately in love. It is that worst of all worlds: love at a distance. Things move on. Changes are made. Meetings come and go. The oscillating feelings both clarify and confuse. Geographical moves convey commitment that forge new dynamics. They generate the elation and agony of blind love. It is a heady concoction. There is a final stage as the relationship climbs into a tempestuous phase of passion and other things. The anatomy of love is the sheer range of emotion and desire possible between two people.
