The title Age in Love is taken from Shakespeare's sonnet 138, a poem about an aging male speaker who, by virtue of his entanglement with the dark lady, “vainly†performs the role of “some untutor'd youth.†Jacqueline Vanhoutte argues that this pattern of “age in love†pervades Shakespeare's mature works.
