Invisible love - Eric-Emmanuel Schmitt

Eric-Emmanuel Schmitt is the author of three luminous collections of short stories including bestselling The Most Beautiful Book in the World (Europa, 2009, available from Turnaround). The question at the centre of all of these works is the same: What is happiness and how do we attain it? In this collection, two lovers secretly adore the child they can never have; a concentration camp survivor finds inner peace thanks to the love of a faithful dog; a man learns to love his wife by listening to the memories of her first husband; and a mother rediscovers love for her child .
