islamacrae 's review for:
All About Love: New Visions
by bell hooks
Right I agree with the premises of her argument that love is a transformative power and love as an antidote to social alienation and individualism. But a lot of it just felt like a preachy sermon rather than a nuanced and engaging critique. Lots of clichés and very utopian in its perspective, truth, love, communion, spirituality etc etc. hooks claims that her work is unlike any other self help books but felt exactly like it. In fairness it was published over 20 years ago so maybe it’s just dated?
