Atonement has a hard love story in it. Robbie and Cecilia are separated by false accusations. The war also adds to their difficulties. Their love is constantly being tested and they face many hardships throughout the story.
One hard love story is 'Wuthering Heights' by Emily Bronte. The love between Heathcliff and Catherine is full of passion, but also many obstacles like social class differences and revenge. Their love is so intense that it leads to a cycle of pain and suffering for themselves and those around them.
Romeo and Juliet is also a kind of hard love story. They are from feuding families. Their love is forbidden, and they have to fight against their families' enmity. In the end, they both die tragically because of the difficulties in being together.
One Japanese hard love story is 'Heavenly Forest'. It tells a poignant love story between two friends that gradually develops into something deeper. The story is filled with unspoken emotions and the pain of missed opportunities.
One example could be the story of Frederick Douglass. He was a black man who fought against slavery. His autobiography details his harsh experiences as a slave, from the brutal treatment on the plantation to his journey of self - education and escape. It's a 'hard core' story in the sense of showing the extreme difficulties and the strength he had to overcome them.
One is 'Gone Girl'. It shows a really cold and complex relationship. The couple's love turns into a battle of wits full of lies and manipulations. Another is 'Wuthering Heights'. Heathcliff and Catherine's love is tortured by class differences and their own pride, which is cold and hard in a way.
'Atonement' is also relevant. The love between Robbie and Cecilia is torn apart by false accusations. Their love is tested severely, and the whole story is filled with the pain and regret caused by the interruption of their love, showing a very 'hard' aspect of love.
One of the most famous undying love stories in literature is 'Romeo and Juliet' by Shakespeare. Their love defied their families' feud and was so intense that they were willing to die for each other. Another is 'Wuthering Heights' by Emily Bronte. Heathcliff and Catherine had a passionate and complex love that endured through time, even though it was filled with pain and longing. And 'Pride and Prejudice' also shows an undying love between Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy. Their relationship grew from initial misunderstandings to a deep and lasting love.
Another example could be 'Atonement'. While not strictly a political love story in the most direct sense, the events of World War II play a huge role. The love between Robbie and Cecilia is affected by false accusations which are in part related to the social and political climate of the time. Their relationship has to face the harshness of the war and the misunderstandings caused by the class - conscious society.
There's 'The Notebook' which is also an epic love story. It's about a man who reads their love story to his wife with Alzheimer's every day to make her remember. In literature, 'Anna Karenina' by Leo Tolstoy is an epic love story too. The love between Anna and Vronsky is passionate but doomed in the context of the society at that time.
There's 'They Shoot Horses, Don't They?'. While it's not a traditional love story in the sense, it has elements of a hard boiled view of relationships. The desperation and the harsh reality of the characters' lives are well - portrayed. Additionally, 'A Farewell to Arms' by Ernest Hemingway has some hard boiled elements in its love story, with the backdrop of war adding to the toughness of the relationship.
In 'Call Me by Your Name', although it has some beautiful moments, it can also be seen as a tragic gay love story. The relationship between Elio and Oliver is short - lived and filled with the pain of separation. Their summer love is restricted by time and the different paths they have to take in life. It shows the bittersweet nature of gay love in a world that may not always be accepting.
In 'Less' by Andrew Sean Greer, the main character Arthur Less has his own journey of love and self - discovery as a gay man. It's a humorous and touching story that shows different aspects of gay love and life.
