Valentines Day, snow storms, handicaps, and parenthood.This unusual little novella has both a very obvious message on its surface and a more subtle message-kernel at its heart which may be easy to miss.

Everybody's had conversation hearts -- those little hard chalky candies they put out around Valentine's day. Zero nutrition, not much taste.

Conversation Hearts is the new novella by John Crowley, author of Little, Big and the AEgypt cycle. In Conversation Hearts Crowley takes a very slim volume and manages to use every word of it to the fullest effect in order to say a great many things.
