Difficult Loves (Italian: Gli amori difficili) is a 1970 short story collection by Italo Calvino.

Some published versions of the English translation by William Weaver omit a number of the stories, and also include other Calvino stories about the Second World War and postwar period, including those from The Crow Comes Last; some of these were translated by Archibald Colquhoun and Peggy Wright.

An English translation of "The Adventure of a Skier" was published by The New Yorker in their July 3, 2017 issue.

[2] The "Adventure of Two Spouses" was loosely adapted into the "Renzo and Luciana" act of Boccaccio '70; the "Adventure of a Soldier" appears as one part of L'amore difficile, a film by Nino Manfredi.
