Collects 166 of Alexander Kluge’s love stories previously
concealed among his vast library of more than 2,000 texts. The
latest offering from one of the greatest living German writers, The
Labyrinth of Tender Force masterfully explores the greatest peaks
and the most dreadful crevasses of passionate love through an
inspired combination of Kluge’s vignettes with drawings,
photographs, and other archival material culled from diverse
sources. Organized thematically, these stories take readers
on a flight over the maps—the varied topography—of love. This
flight ends on a high plateau, at the heart of the most beautiful
romances and a cardinal text of modernity about the economy of
relationships: Madame de La Fayette’s The Princess of Cleves.
