Essays in Love

by Alain de Botton Author

Hybrid genre book, Essays on Love utilises fiction and uses commentary to make a statement on the dynamics. Including anxiety and other emotions like limerence, ones that evolve in a relationship. De Botton has oriented the content specifically to relationships between a man and a woman, assuming a monogamous lens. Best suited for the straights, we cast no (overly harsh) judgment.
