Essays In Love will appeal to anyone who has ever been in a relationship or confused about love. The book charts the progress of a relationship between a man and a woman, from their first kiss to the onset of anxiety and heartbreak. The work´s genius lies in the way it minutely analysis emotions we´ve all felt before but have perhaps never understood so well: it includes a chapter of the anxieties of when and how to say `I love you´ and another on the challenges of disagreeing with someone else´s taste in shoes. While gripping the reader with the talent of a great novelist, de Botton brings in a philosopher´s sensibility to his analyses of the emotions of love, resulting in a genre-breaking book that is at once touching and thought-provoking.
