French intellectual Pascal Bruckner writes about what each of us already has his own opinion. But this essay is unlikely to refute it. Brückner builds a kind of love universe that takes into account all possible points of view on the oldest of feelings. Brückner’s youth fell on the 1960s, with memories of the era of “free love” and the book begins.
French intellectual Pascal Bruckner writes about what each of us already has his own opinion. But this essay is unlikely to refute it. Bruckner builds a kind of love universe that takes into account all possible points of view on the oldest of feelings. Brückner’s youth fell on the 1960s, with memories of the era of “free love” and the book begins. So we also have a kind of erotic autobiography. Brückner dissects all the stages of falling in love, the “beautiful madness of conjugal love”, the “wonderful world of the flesh”, as well as the accompanying illusions and taboos. The main strength of the book is sanity. Recognition of the “laws of the heart”. And therefore “do not be ashamed to be who you are, naive, sentimental, faithful or windy … We love the way people know how to love, that is, imperfectly.”
