Publisher's Note
In this witty, innovative novel of a modern relationship, de Botton explores the progress of a love affair from first meeting to breaking up, intercut with musings on the nature of art and love. "A cross between Milan Kundera and Erich Segal, with some Vonnegut thrown in for spice".--Kirkus Reviews.

Industry Reviews
"...sheds light on the nature of relationships....the method of telling much and showing little produces a good deal of wit, cogency, and humor."
New Yorker - John Updike

"Mr. de Botton borrows exuberantly, and well, from his forbears."
New York Times Book Review - Lisa Zeidner (06/11/1995)

"Though erudite, the book is never dryly academic when it draws on the heavyweights of the Western intellectual tradition to comment on the couple's modest workaday lives....Written both with ardor and with tongue in cheek, [this] is the product of a lavishly furnished mind and mischievous temperament."
San Francisco Chronicle (07/02/1995)

"...precocious in its tone and in its acquired wisdom."
John Updike

"De Botton's ruminative novel depicts an ill-fated love affair between two British yuppies. The narrator discusses the characters' behavior and its implications, bolstering his arguments with sources that range from 'Madame Bovary' to Aretha Franklin."
Los Angeles Times Book Review - Charles Solomon (07/07/1996)
