About this product

Product Information

Absolutely marvelous...lively and learned....Marilyn Yalom's book is a distinguished contribution to our experience of a great literature, as well as an endearing memoir. --Diane Johnson, author of Lulu in Marrakech and Le Divorce [An] enchanting tour of French literature--from Abelard and Heloise in the 12th century to Marguerite Duras in the 20th and Philippe Sollers in the 21st. --Publishers Weekly (starred review)How the French Invented Love is an entertaining and masterful history of love a la francaise by acclaimed scholar Marilyn Yalom. Spanning the Middle Ages to the present, Yalom explores a love-obsessed culture through its great works of literature--from Moliere's comic love to the tragic love of Racine, from the existential love of Simone de Beauvoir and Jean-Paul Sartre to the romanticism of George Sand and Alfred de Musset. A thoroughly engaging homage to French culture and literature interlaced with the author's delicious personal anecdotes, How the French Invented Love is ideal for fans of Alain de Botton, Adam Gopnik, and Simon Schama.

The condition was not ‘as new’ 😞
I love books and take good care of them… I was told this book was ‘as new’ and in good condition 👎🏻it was tattered and scratched, and looked / felt very worn/used!! Very disappointed 😏… it wasn’t cheap either for a 2nd hand book.
