Lovable (2007)

Why is love so elusive? In this concluding volume of his autobiographical trilogy, Alan Zweig offers a refreshingly honest look at his own singleness at middle age, despite desiring a partner and family. Through intimate and often humorous conversations with a variety of intelligent and appealing single women, Zweig examines our cultural ideals of romance and the challenges of building lasting connections. Some women have embraced solitude, while others still hope for a shared future. Zweig connects with his subjects as fellow travelers, sharing their vulnerabilities and openness. A collection of love songs creates a poignant backdrop for this brave exploration of love and longing.
