harvio 's review for:

Against Love: A Polemic by Laura Kipnis
5.0

- WOW!
- brilliant, intelligent, masterful analysis of love, relationships, and fidelity
- social criticism at its very best
- ask yourself if you are courageous enough to place your domestic life/marital commitments under a microscope
- admittedly, this is actually a treatise against modern love - but conveyed with style, compassion, and great wit
- "Falling in love is the nearest most of us come to glimpsing utopia in our lifetimes (with sex and drugs as fallbacks)," she writes
