Bedtime Stories: Essays In Love - Part 1 - YouTube.
On Love is globally bestselling novelist-philosopher Alain De Botton’s iconic debut—the novel that launched his decorated literary career; and a funny, profound, and searingly true-to-life exploration of love.A man and a woman meet over casual conversation on a flight from Paris to London, and so begins a love story—from fist kiss to first argument, elation to heartbreak, and everything.
Or however old you were when you wrote Essays in Love? DE BOTTON: Well, I think that fame is a problematic thing. It’s a really big ambition for many people to want to be famous. I think often what people really want is love, kindness, respect, community. And oddly enough, none of these things are really offered to you via fame.
