The best-selling author of How Proust Can Change Your Life and The Art of Travel revisits his utterly charming debut novel, On Love. The narrator is smitten by Chloe on a Paris–London flight, and by the time they’ve reached the luggage carousel he knows he is in love. He loves her chestnut hair, watery green eyes, the gap that makes her teeth Kantian and not Platonic, and her views on Heidegger’s Being and Time — but he hates her taste in shoes. Plotting the course of their affair from the initial delirium of infatuation to the depths of suicidal despair, through a fit of anhedonia — defined in medical texts as a disease resulting from the terror brought on by the threat of utter happiness — and finally through the terrorist tactics employed when the beloved begins, inexplicably, to drift away, On Love is filled with profound observations and useful diagrams, examining for all of us the pain and exhilaration of love.

[English version] The first half is so much fun! The second half seems way too dramatic for the character. Got some good quotes :)
评分说是A Novel 其实根本就是随笔啦，很多描述恋爱的心境都很有共鸣，尤其是失去爱人后，要从曾经分享的一切中找到新的自我和秩序的这段。不过全书最后也没给出个答案，要如何去爱？
