  • L’Europeo No. 87 | Impossible Relationships | October/November 2023

    Stories of happy love are beautiful—and as dull as a Swiss postcard. Let us admit that they are more often expressions of desire or fiction than faithful portrayals of the complex emotional bonds between human beings. Exceptions merely prove the rule.

    There is, however, impossible love. And unlike happy love, it is something each of us has surely experienced. It has made us tremble, weep, and laugh in delirious succession; it has driven us to pluck stars from the sky and lay our hearts upon the autopsy table. It has made us feel truly alive precisely because we know that the unattainable will remain forever pure, untouched by the banality of ill-fated everyday life.

    For it is not love that is impossible, but the relationship that follows it.

    AMONG THE FEATURES IN THIS ISSUE:

    • The final flight of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry towards his eternal muse, Consuelo;
    • Hemingway and Gellhorn: between passion and the abyss;
    • The genius Thomas Mann, torn apart by the demon of his concealed and forbidden sexuality;
    • Franz Kafka and his astonishing metamorphoses in intimacy;
    • Hanako, Rodin's impossible Japanese dream—and that of dozens of the greatest artistic talents of twentieth-century Europe;
    • The great ballerina Isadora Duncan and the great poet Sergei Yesenin as a living metaphor for impossible relationships;
    • Ivan Turgenev and Pauline Viardot: forty years of beautiful and forbidden love;
    • Perry Smith and Truman Capote, separated by prison bars and death;
    • Clark Gable in far more than one impossible relationship;
    • Charles Darwin and his wife—and first cousin—made the unacceptable possible;
    • Klaus Kinski and Werner Herzog: when the impossible becomes possible on screen;
    • Roberto Rossellini and Ingrid Bergman, or why a nun should never fall in love with an Italian.

    All this and much more in L’EUROPEO No. 87: IMPOSSIBLE RELATIONSHIPS.
