The first British paperback edition (Four Square, 1964) includes "£ove $tory", a 32-page supplement by John Glashan.

In 1964 it was turned into a film of the same title starring Natalie Wood. The screenplay was co-written by Joseph Heller, author of Catch-22.

The movie and its film adaptation were a later inspiration for the 1997 book Sex and the City (later a television series). The book, by Candace Bushnell, revolved around single thirtysomething city dweller Carrie Bradshaw.
