Conversas Sobre o Amor

Gran parte de nuestra vida gira en torno al amor: queremos encontrarlo, procurarlo o superar que lo hemos perdido. Pero ¿de qué se trata amar de verdad? ¿Cómo funcionan las relaciones y cómo evolucionan con el paso del tiempo? «Sin temor a exagerar, puedo afirmar que las conversaciones que he tenido sobre el amor han cambiado mi vida». Natasha Lunn Con inteligencia, gracia y la dosis perfecta de vulnerabilidad, la autora entrelaza su experiencia personal con entrevistas a terapeutas, escritores y expertos como Alain de Botton, Esther Perel, Roxane Gay y Lisa Taddeo, entre muchos otros. Juntos indagan el significado de intimidad, amistad, sexo, soledad y duelo en las relaciones afectivas. No hay respuestas cerradas, sino más bien una invitación a pensar y crear definiciones propias, a aprender a amar más y mejor. Después de todo, el amor nos llega en miles de formas, solo hay que atrevernos a experimentarlo. «Repleto de pequeños momentos eureka, Hablemos sobre el amor ofrece una perspectiva fresca de las relaciones y el corazón humano».

Wie wir sie finden, an ihr wachsen und sie nicht verlieren

Gespräche über die Liebe

Een ode aan de liefde in al haar vormen – met onder anderen Alain de Botton en Esther Perel Na jaren het gevoel te hebben gehad dat echte liefde onbereikbaar was, probeerde Natasha Lunn te ontdekken hoe relaties werken en veranderen over tijd. Ze ging in gesprek met auteurs en experts om te leren van hun ervaringen – en die van haarzelf. Daarbij verdiepte ze zich in vragen als: hoe vinden we liefde? Hoe houden we haar in stand? En wat gebeurt er als we haar dreigen te verliezen? Haar zoektocht leverde inzicht op over de liefde in al haar vormen: tussen geliefden, ouders en kinderen, onbekenden en vrienden. Lunn sprak o.a. met: Philippa Perry over langzaam verliefd worden Dolly Alderton over kwetsbaarheid Stephen Grosz over het accepteren van verandering Candice Carty-Williams over vriendschap Lisa Taddeo over de eenzaamheid van verlies Diana Evans over ouderschap Emily Nagoski over seks en wetenschap Alain de Botton over de psychologie van het alleen-zijn Esther Perel over onrealistische verwachtingen Roxane Gay over het herdefiniëren van romantiek en vele anderen… In Gesprekken over de liefde leidt Lunn ons door de complexiteit van de liefde. Ze herinnert ons eraan dat liefde tegelijk kwetsbaar en solide, alledaags en wonderschoon is – en altijd de moeite waard om voor te vechten. De pers over Gesprekken over de liefde: 'Uit alle gesprekken kun je wel iets halen dat je helpt in je eigen leven. Een feest om al die wijze mensen bij elkaar in één boek te hebben.' Psychologie Magazine

Een ode aan de liefde in al haar vormen

Gesprekken over de liefde

Natasha Lunn hat zwei Jahre lang Menschen zu ihren Beziehungen und ihrer Liebe befragt und dabei herausgefunden, dass sich alle Fragen, die wir haben, auf drei große zurückführen lassen: Wie finden wir die Liebe? Wie können wir sie festhalten? Wie überleben wir, wenn wir sie verloren haben? Dieses Buch versammelt wunderschöne Geschichten über die Liebe und praktische Ratschläge von Experten. So kommen etwa Philippa Perry, Hilary Mantel und Alain de Botton zu Wort. Es gibt Hoffnung - die Liebe zu finden, sie aufrechtzuerhalten, über sie hinwegzukommen. Und es inspiriert, die Liebe zu Partnern, Freunden und Kindern ernst zu nehmen und sich selbst und seine Wünsche immer wieder zu hinterfragen. Denn es geht nicht nur darum, was wir in der Liebe wollen, sondern auch darum, wer wir selbst sein wollen.
