More about the book

The book presents a literary-critical exploration of love, proposing that its roots lie in the nurturing bond between caregiver and child rather than in physical desire. It emphasizes how love involves a complex interplay between our aesthetic and analytical abilities, allowing us to both recognize and shape our perception of the beloved. This perspective challenges conventional views on romantic love, offering a fresh understanding of its emotional and relational foundations.
