I don’t tend to read romance novels, so I had to think a bit about whether I even knew of a book to recommend for a Valentine’s read. After all, if I ask others to suggest books, shouldn’t I make an effort too?

What came to mind is an exquisite small novel, Alessandro Baricco’s Silk. The review, below, captures the spirit of the book well.
