In Edinburgh, a couple, Rabih and Kirsten, fall in love. They get married. They have children. Society tells us this is the end of the story. In fact, it is only the beginning.
From the author of Essays in Love comes the long-awaited and beguiling sequel, which charts the complex and intricate course of a long-term relationship.
We all know the headiness and excitement of love’s early days, but what can be expected over a shared lifetime? We follow our couple – Rabih and Kristen – from the first flush of infatuation through to inevitable disenchantments and then onto the freedom and insights of maturity. The Course of Love is a novel that explores not so much the start of love, as its maintenance over time; the way our ideals bend and reform under the pressures of an average existence, and the magnificent, sometimes frightening, developments we can make as we slowly realise that love is in essence a skill we need to learn rather than an enthusiasm we simply experience.
Playful, wise, and profoundly moving, The Course of Love is an unparalleled meditation on modern relationships —and a delightful return to the novel for Alain, more than 20 years after Essays in Love.

读后感
这是第一次看有关婚姻与爱情的书籍，我一直都比较排斥此类书籍，特别是对外国作者更是抱有偏见，觉得可能并不适合中国国情，但很幸运，没有错过这本书！我喜欢它细致的分析，我想这与它的翻译者也有莫大的关联，她必定也是对绵密的生活有着超于常人的体悟，生活的纹理如此清晰...
评分作者有敏锐的观察力，优美的文笔，但是也就到此为止了 -- 又或者，爱情也就只是如此这般的东西。不论爱上的是谁，和谁结为连理，都会变得憎恨对方，无性，对诱惑心头惴惴，在争吵和冷战中抚养大孩子，变老。 这种称为人生的旅程，名为婚姻的誓言里，你像感受病痛一样感受到了...
评分在看其他心理学小说的时候，我会不由自主地被情节带入，进而开始自我剖析。边读边自我检视和反思的过程往往带给我很多领悟。但是这一次不同。 看这本书时，我的内心是抗拒的，用心理学的话来说，这是遇到了“阻抗”。书中描写夫妻间冲突、争执、冷战等情节的时候，仿佛把我父母...
评分爱情，是生生不息的话题，也是不朽的人生主题。诗人、小说家、艺术家纷纷采用不同的艺术来讴歌和赞美爱情。除了梁山伯与祝英台、罗密欧与朱丽叶式的爱情悲剧，司马相如和卓文君、王子和公主式的爱情喜剧，最终的结局大都是“从此过上了幸福的生活”。在婚姻面前，爱情能够坚持...
评分我对于爱情的了解，在谈恋爱之前只有浅薄的认识。阅读和观影经验塑造了我对爱情浪漫主义式的想象。以为两个人在一起、相爱了，就能永远在一起。直到恋爱后，才发觉这种想法是多么地无知。爱情是两个人相互间的事情，不是一个人有爱就行了，而且爱虽然是和谐关系的基础，但只有...
用户评价
虎头蛇尾，德波顿独有的哲人式絮叨。文字舒服的时候感觉满口绵密，做作的时候会让人一秒出戏。
评分There is no such person over the long term. We are too varied and peculiar....
评分这是一本我以后一定会在人生不同阶段重新捡起来读很多遍的书，也是我但愿和前男友一起读过的书，还是我会推荐给闺蜜和哥们的书，更是我一定会在结婚前要求我的未来男朋友读完并且和我讨论的书。
评分婚姻真实的样子。接受别人和自己的不完美
评分有点鸡肋。可能因为我已经比较熟悉他的爱情观了，所以没有什么新鲜感。他在YouTube的School of Life很好。His delivery on stage is better than his writing.
