In the fiction of Virginia Reeves (The Behavior or Love) and Ivelisse Rodriguez (Love War Stories), the pressures and expectations of community bear down on stories of love and romantic relationships. A behavioral therapist grows too close to a patient; a new generation of Puerto Rican women embark on journeys of desire with the experiences of their mothers at their backs. What responsibilities does love have to family, friends, and community?
