Essays In Love

Essays In Love

The classic book on love by the bestselling author of How Proust Can Change Your Life and The Consolations of Philosophy.

Perhaps it is true that we do not really exist until there is someone there to see us existing, we cannot properly speak until there is someone who can understand what we are saying, in essence, we are not wholly alive until we are loved. A man and a woman meet over casual conversation on a flight from Paris to London, and so begins a love story - from first kiss to first argument, elation to heartbreak, and everything in between. Each stage of the relationship is illuminated with startling clarity, as de Botton explores emotions often felt but rarely understood. With the verve of a novelist and the insight of a philosopher, Alain de Botton uncovers the mysteries of the human heart. Essays In Love is an iconic book - one that should be read by anyone who has ever fallen in love. 'Single-handedly, de Botton has taken philosophy back to its most important purpose: helping us to live our lives' Independent 'Witty, funny, sophisticated and full of wise and illuminating insights' Spectator
