The Four Walls of Love ...

refers to the different abodes where romance takes place or love is consumated. Blanch's writing is about high romance and the essence of this collection of vignettes is the trappings and settings of houses, roooms, or castles (the walls) that surround love and lovers.A well traveled author, who lived abroad-- in the South of France, Middle East and Asia-- draws on her cultural travels for her themes of love and love making. A romantic and often sensual read.
