So, yes, there are romantic pieces inside - but you'll also find contemplations of family and friendship. What's more, \u003cem\u003eFoothills\u003c\/em\u003e does not pretend that love is all puppies and rainbows. Puppies dry-hump your slippers, and gawking at rainbows causes car accidents... \u003cem\u003eFoothills\u003c\/em\u003e knows this. So come on in for some real talk about love, knowing as you do that this book is ultimately a believer (and probably so are you).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis special edition of \u003cem\u003eFoothills\u003c\/em\u003e also features two short love stories, as well as \u003cem\u003eMemo\u003c\/em\u003e, a Thanksgiving poem and essay about resilience that was written in mid-pandemic Paris and inspired by the work of Jack Gilbert.
