The Valentines Day Tale is a short story from the Tv-Show "Sex and the City"
In Sex and the City, the column writer Carrie Bradshaw writes about love and the dating life in New York. She uses the example of a british woman who moves to New York, starts dating a guy and even goes and looks at apartments together. All of a sudden the guy disappears and is out of her life for good. Bradshaw uses this example to describe how love works in New York, and how you can't rely on the guys that you are dating. She concludes, that if you want to find love, move away from New York. The english woman expects something different than the typical New Yorker, because she was raised in a different setting and society, so she has different values and expectations.
The text also discusses the age of "innocence" or the age where one has sex.

The moral of the valentines day tale is that you are responsible for your own misery or happiness.

Summary:
William Shakespeare is a young, famous playwright. He is writing a play which was originally about a pirate's daughter, but after he met Viola De Lesseps, he changes the play so it's about two lovers from rival families. Their affair goes on for the entire time they practise the show. The play reflects their own romance. They eventually break it off, and Viola is going to marry lord Wessex. At the premiere, Viola plays the role of Juliet, and Shakespeare plays Romeo. Even though Viola leaves, Will continues to write plays about her.

Characters:
Will is very ambitious and selfsatisfied with his projects and plays, but he lacks empathy to put himself in other’s situation. He’s very frank and honest about what he wants, and doesn’t let himself be intimidated by other’s expectations.
Viola is passionate about theatre, and hopelessly romantic. She believes that love will not truly bloom on the stage unless a woman and a man play together. Underneath the innocent facade, she rebels against the discrimination of  women by dressing up as a man and joining the play.

Themes:
Forbidden romance, eternal love, society norms, personal development, a woman's place in the beginning of the 17th century, the true nature of love, gender roles, love at first sight.
