SUNDAY TIMES TOP TEN BESTSELLER From one of our great thinkers on
modern life and the human condition - an unforgettable story of
love and marriage from the author of bestselling novel Essays in
Love as well as The Consolations of Philosophy, Religion for
Atheists and The School of Life 'The Course of Love probes the very
heart of marriage, its shifts and squalls, its great adventure,
with such forensic tenderness. I laughed a lot, too' Deborah
Moggach 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. 'Engaging, sympathetic, acutely
perceptive... There's a refreshing honesty in what de Botton has to
say' Guardian 'Anyone who is, has been, or would ever like to be,
in a satisfying, successful relationship, would do well to read de
Botton' Irish Independent 'He debunks the myth of the happily ever
after with a painfully familiar, often hilarious detailing of petty
arguments, the occasional extra-marital fling, the moments of
loneliness and the declining frequency of sex... It's not only
hugely enjoyable but life enhancing too' Daily Mail
