The Course of Love by Alain de Botton

3.0

There is a lot I don’t like and don’t agree with, especially regarding where he seems to think modern marriage fits in its history as an institution. That was driving me slightly mad. While I didn’t like everything he said it was still interesting to have a different approach to relationships. Whether you agree or not I think it helped me see where I stand on a lot of things. I valued most what he has to say about older relationships rather than falling in love etc. Do I think love is a skill.... no. Are long term commitments relationships? Absolutely.
