About this ebook
This was a very interesting story with which to begin an anthology. It’s a love story, and then again, it’s totally not. This married couple spent their entire lives pursuing a love uninhibited by physical contact, pursuing what they dubbed “satiety,” or total satisfaction. They loved life, yet in the end, their pursuit of a totally satisfying love and complete life was nothing more than a concept. “It was for the inordinate desire for joy that they forewent joy”—that thing they pursued most was the thing they despised most. It was the pleasure-delaying mentality taken to its ultimate extreme, and I’m pretty confident that Jack London thought them fools. I’m with him there! This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it. This work was reproduced from the original artifact, and remains as true to the original work as possible.
