' De Botton is a national treasure.' - Susan Hill, author of The Woman in Black With an introduction by Sheila Heti A unique love story and a classic work of philosophy, rooted in the mysterious workings of the human heart and mind.

Despite these weaknesses there are some interesting and maybe useful ideas in various chapters of the book, which I’ll now discuss.
