In hindsight, Daniel Jones says he knew little about love when he started editing the personal-essay column called Modern Love that runs in the Sunday Styles section of The New York Times.
âNow, nine years later, I apparently know enough about love to fill a book,â he writes in his introduction to âLove Illuminated: Exploring Lifeâs Most Mystifying Subject (with the Help of 50,000 Strangers.)â
On Saturday, Jones will talk about his book and offer his own witty, wise and one-of-a-kind observations on relationships, dating, marriage and love. He will share the stage with his wife, Cathi Hanauer; the couple met while both attended the University of Arizona.
Jones is part of a literary lineup of authors who will speak about love â love of language, love of history, love of biography, love of word puzzles â at the Star Pavilion during the sixth edition of Tucson Festival of Books next weekend.
