All About Love

In her most provocative and intensely personal book, bell hooks (renowned scholar, cultural critic, and feminist) examines our view of love as romance. In its place, she offers a proactive new ethic for a people and a society bereft with lovelessness. As hooks use her incisive mind and razor-sharp pen to explore the question “What is love?” her answers strike at both the mind and heart. In thirteen concise chapters, hooks examine her own search for emotional connection and society’s failure to provide a model for learning to love. Razing the cultural paradigm that the ideal love is infused with sex and desire, she provides a new path to love that is sacred, redemptive, and healing for individuals as well as for a nation.
