The most popular, provocative, and unforgettable essays from the past fifteen years of the New York Times “Modern Love” column—including stories from the upcoming anthology series starring Tina Fey, Andy Garcia, Anne Hathaway, Catherine Keener, Dev Patel, and John Slattery
A young woman goes through the five stages of ghosting grief. A man’s promising fourth date ends in the emergency room. A female lawyer with bipolar disorder experiences the highs and lows of dating. A widower hesitates about introducing his children to his new girlfriend. A divorcée in her seventies looks back at the beauty and rubble of past relationships.
These are just a few of the people who tell their stories in Modern Love, Revised and Updated, featuring dozens of the most memorable essays to run in The New York Times “Modern Love” column since its debut in 2004.
Some of the stories are unconventional, while others hit close to home. Some reveal the way technology has changed dating forever; others explore the timeless struggles experienced by anyone who has ever searched for love. But all of the stories are, above everything else, honest. Together, they tell the larger story of how relationships begin, often fail, and—when we’re lucky—endure.
Edited by longtime “Modern Love” editor Daniel Jones and featuring a diverse selection of contributors—including Mindy Hung, Trey Ellis, Ann Hood, Deborah Copaken, Terri Cheney, and more—this is the perfect book for anyone who’s loved, lost, stalked an ex on social media, or pined for true romance: In other words, anyone interested in the endlessly complicated workings of the human heart.
Daniel Jones has edited the Modern Love column in The New York Times since its launch in 2004. His books include "Love Illuminated: Exploring Life's Most Mystifying Subject with the Help of 50,000 Strangers," "The Bastard on the Couch: 27 Men Try Really Hard to Explore Their Feelings About Love, Loss, Freedom, and Fatherhood," and a novel, "After Lucy," which was a finalist for the Barnes & Noble Discover Award. His new book, "Modern Love," is an anthology of many of the best Modern Love columns from the past 15 years.

我認清我自己瞭,再怎麼裝酷我也是個大俗人,我看其中很多故事都要哭,I believe in love so much
评分Watched the series, found out about the podcast and eventually read the book. Most of the stories in the book were simpler versions of the series, but it is not necessarily less sentimental or powerful. It caters to a shorter attention span and less time commitment. Besides the stories, there're various writing styles to appreciate too.
评分看瞭電視第一集(門衛的故事)就半夜亞馬遜買瞭書。結果整本書書裏的故事其實也就最喜歡門衛那一篇。
评分平靜小書
评分3.5 stars! An interesting collecton of essays about modern love. I love that other than romantic love, it explored various facets of love. However, some stories are really bland and somewhat boring - not sure how they made the cut.
