“What We Talk About When We Talk About Love” is a short story by Raymond Carver that explores the meaning of love and relationships between men and women in the late 1970s or early 80s in America1. The story follows two couples, Mel and Terri, and Nick and Laura, as they sit around a kitchen table drinking gin and discussing love23. Mel believes that love is spiritual, while Terri recounts a story of being beaten by an ex-boyfriend who claimed to love her4. The characters struggle to define love, and Mel’s attempts to do so devolve into a bitter tirade against his ex-wife5.
