“Ah, Valentine's Day: the 24 hours of each and every year dedicated to the exuberant affections of requited love. A day to cuddle up with your significant other and enjoy the simple beauty of each other's presence... or to blind yourself with a bottle of tequila and four seasons of the X-Files, holed up in your apartment desperately trying to pretend you don't care about some holiday that, like, isn't even real and was so totally made up by Hallmark, the insensitive capitalist scum! Regardless of which camp you fall into, you're sure to find some laughs at Love Hurts, Litquake's pre-Valentine's Day celebration of some of the most horrendous and/or ridiculous passages on love ever written onto the page.”
Cooper Berkmoyer, Flavorpill
Litquake commemorates the year's most overrated holiday with Love Hurts: Litquake Preps You for Valentine's Day with Readings From Some of the Most Wretched Passages on Love and Lust Ever Written. Authors Justin Chin, Daphne Gottlieb, Brock Keeling, MariNaomi, Kirk Read, Michelle Richmond, Ellen Sussman, Michelle Tea, and Malena Watrous tackle their favorite overwrought passages.
