Alain de Botton is the author of a number of books that try to throw light on the big challenges of our lives. His books have been sold in thirty-five countries and many have been international bestsellers, including How Proust Can Change Your Life, Essays in Love and The Art of Travel. He is the founder of two social enterprises, the first promoting architecture, Living Architecture (www.living-architecture.co.uk), which gets top architects to build holiday homes for rental by everyone. The second enterprise is The School of Life (www.theschooloflife.com).
With an introduction by Sheila Heti
A unique love story and a classic work of philosophy, rooted in the mysterious workings of the human heart and mind.
Perhaps it is true that we do not really exist until there is someone there to see us existing, we cannot properly speak until there is someone who can understand what we are saying in essence, we are not wholly alive until we are loved.
A man and a woman meet over casual conversation on a flight from Paris to London, and so begins a love story - from first kiss to first argument, elation to heartbreak, and everything in between. Each stage of the relationship is illuminated with startling clarity, as de Botton explores emotions often felt but rarely understood.
With the verve of a novelist and the insight of a philosopher, Alain de Botton uncovers the mysteries of the human heart. Essays In Love is an iconic book - one that should be read by anyone who has ever fallen in love.

一口氣看完瞭《愛情筆記》,大約是因為下午那杯黑咖的原因,關燈縮在被窩裏半個小時也睡不著。 這是阿蘭·德波頓的第一本書,也是第一本他的小說。“英倫纔子”的名氣自不用說,而我是在看完他後來的幾本散文之後纔看到的這本。這是本不像小說的小說,明顯是一個“想太多”...
評分如果你多愁善感,內心驕傲,舉止文雅,是豆瓣的積極成員,永遠改不瞭“想太多”的毛病,犯過戀愛焦慮癥,目前處於失戀狀態,或不知道另一半在想什麼,常常鑽牛角尖,覺得誰都很難瞭解你,朋友的安慰沒用,一度時間自閉或禁欲,想過尋求心理治療或嚮宗教尋求支持,甚至有過輕生...
評分一本不落窠臼的小說,一種彆齣心裁的文體,模糊瞭小說與隨筆的界限,初試啼聲的阿蘭,針對人類永恒的主題,由點及麵的問,淺嘗輒止的答。其間時有哲思巧辯,兼以行文的靈黠流暢,大都市俯拾即是的愛情故事因此色彩誘人。新瓶裝上舊酒,彆有一種芬香撲鼻。 愛過的你,有沒有和...

評分還是從小細節說起吧。作者在書中提到,他不確定他對剋洛艾的感情就是愛情,也許在不同的時代人們對這種情感有不同的解釋。然後他舉瞭例子,阿維拉的聖特裏薩修女,引用瞭一段日記式的文字:某個少年如此奪目,好像拿瞭一把金色的劍刺進修女的心。作者說也許修女成就瞭一次精神...
圖書標籤: 英國文學 英文原版 愛情 心理學 散文 英國 哲學 沒想到還要新的標簽
確實是essay無疑。全篇冷靜客觀,講述瞭戀愛中多個必經階段,摻雜瞭哲學辯論和心理學分析,作為串聯的“故事”本身反而顯得次要。阿蘭德波頓的語言很流暢,tone也讓人很舒服,倫敦文藝紳士腔。
