قصة الكتاب :
Love\'s Usury by John Donne is a transcendent appeal by the author to what we might term the Goddess of Love . It is a cry of youth to allow the very essence of love to permeate life, and being . The youthful Donne is willing to pay any price no matter how high if only the singular passion which he calls love may dominate in the now . Donne wants to experience everything the Goddess of Love has to offer . He wants to travel, snatch, plot, have, and continue every love affair as if it were brand new, never becoming stale . Donne is willing to read other lovers mail in order to obtain advantage and take advantage of every opportunity to externalize passion, even having relations with a maid on the way to an appointment with another woman, evidently hoping that the second woman will be so anxious for the delayed gratification, that the crescendo of passion resulting will be a fitting tribute to the essence of the Goddess of Love .
