The Course of Love
Autor Alain de Bottonen Limba Engleză Paperback – 25 ian 2017
Modern love is never easy. Society is obsessed with stories of romance, but what comes after happily ever after?
This is a love story with a difference. From dating to marriage, from having kids to having affairs, it follows the progress of a single ordinary relationship: tender, messy, hilarious, painful, and entirely un-Romantic. It is a love story for the modern world, chronicling the daily intimacies, the blazing rows, the endless tiny gestures that make up a life shared between two people. Moving and deeply insightful, The Course of Love offers us a window into essential truths about the nature of love.

Recenzii
He'scompletely on the moneywith the minutiae of marital life and every note rings uncomfortably true. The story is told withgreat wit and affection... de Botton knows his stuff and the book builds into a truly wonderful and positive analysis of a successful lifelong partnership.It should be compulsory reading for anyone contemplating tying the knot.
Engaging, meticulous, acutely perceptive... There's a refreshing honesty in what De Botton has to say
One passage was so spot-on that I read it aloud to my husband... De Botton appreciates, as few writers do, the miracle and subtlety of the so-called ordinary
Well-observed and imbued with a tenderness that feels authentic and uncynical... It may even save some marriages.
[A] worldly wise romance
A complete delight
