About this deal

Given the cultural importance we place on love, it is surprising how little we know and understand about it and this eclectic collection of interviews goes a long way to exploring love, connection, and loss in myriad ways. Ambil contoh, ada nama Alaine de Botton, Philippa Perry, Emily Nagoski, Esther Perel, Roxane Gay dan masih banyak lagi. Percakapan itu melengkapi definisi "Cinta" yang Lunn coba ejawantahkan. Upon reading CoL, I never felt like Lunn telling me that "you have been wrong, and I am right." Instead, I felt like making a journey of self-discovery together with a best friend that has known me for a long time. Through her own thoughts and a series of interview-like conversations, Natasha Lunn reflects on relationships in all their forms. It is split into three main sections, how we find love, how we sustain it, and how we survive when we lose it.

Sepanjang membaca Conversations on Love, ada perasaan hangat berkat "kasih sayang" yang nggak terbatas artinya kepada pasangan. Seperti yang tampak di bagian sampul, buku ini juga ingin menyentuh dimensi "cinta" kepada orangtua, teman, & manusia lain. Juga tentang mengawali dan mengakhiri cinta kasih itu sendiri. Hopeful and uplifting... this deep dive into the human heart will expand and enrich your perspective on love' Evening Standard she allows the reader space to consider our own relationships and what truly brings us happiness, all with a beautiful linguistic flourish that is so rarely depicted in didactic essay collections. I truly did not expect to think about love in all its forms so deeply and with power and intention behind those thoughts. conversations on love is a welcome breath of fresh air to the genre, carrying lessons that I know I will take with me into the future.

Like hauling a heavy suitcase up the stairs at a station, I imagined it would be easier if there were an end point in sight, because when you can see the top of the station stairs or the finish line of a run, it’s easy to dig deep for an extra bit of strength to get there.” There is a lot to like about this book. It is written and flows together beautifully. There were a few sections however that began to meander and become a little too repetitive. Whilst I appreciated hearing from different voices and felt this added another layer to the book…I felt that a lot of the perspectives were quite similar. This added to the sense of repetition through the themes rather than unique or differing perspectives that give greater cause for pause and reflection.

Sisters Marie and Dara Durante own a suburban ballet school they inherited from their mother. Dara’s husband, Charlie – who grew up in the family home as their mother’s star pupil – runs the logistics. When a building contractor, Derek, enters their lives to undertake some repairs, he inveigles his way beneath the trio’s tightly guarded and emotionally fraught bonds. Abbott’s prose is dazzlingly precise and her portrayal of student rivalries razor-sharp in this taut and psychologically gripping novel. Conversations on Love Because being yourself in a relationship is a risk. It means showing someone the real bits of who you are--the spots beneath the make up; the self-doubt beneath the cynicism-and finding the courage to say 'This is me. Take it or leave it' and to really mean it." What started off as a pursuit of the secrets of love evolves – conversation by conversation – into a moving meditation on life and loss.
