A review by crodo
The Art of Seduction by Robert Greene
4.0
Alright, finally I finished. This book comes with a disclaimer. On one hand the book could be used by others to equip themselves with tools to seduce or manipulate. On the other hand it could be used by people to build mental armor, equipping them with the ability to prevent seduction or manipulation. The book might need a trigger warning; anyone that has been in an abusive relationship, sexual or not will spot the "seduction" techniques used on them to keep them in the toxic relationship.
This book in not only for seduction as it relates to a sexual encounter; a level of seduction is needed for even the most basic human connection. Seduction, as a construct is separate from physical intimacy. Politicians and coworkers are capable of seducing us. I would be interested to know how this book holds up with the younger generations as some folks seem to lack certain social skills or social understandings.
Something I love about this book is the history! I am inspired to dive into various branches of world history. For me, this book is a dense read. I will likely use it as a resource moving forward rather than read it cover-to-cover.
