I loved this book so much. The exploration on love, relationships, sex, childhood, children, performative speech on love, and writing and talking about love. Genealogy. Maximes. La Rochefoucauld. I think I highlighted the entre book. This is an essay on love, this is an essay on writing, this is an essay on writing about love. Endlessly searching and defining the undefinable: love.

“Those we love never truly leave us, Harry. There are things that death cannot touch.” 

“In every shining moment of happiness is that drop of poison: the knowledge that pain will come again. Be honest to those you love, show your pain. To suffer is as human as to breathe.”
