Reader reviews for The Art of Loving
Review summary
Reviewers largely criticized the book’s repetitious thesis about modernity and commercialization. They argue it relies on neat archetypes, oversimplifies psychoanalytic ideas, and advances gender-essentialist, heteronormative claims that diminish same-sex love and reduce women to childbirth. The tone felt idealistic and emotion-led, with thin reasoning. Some appreciated the reflections on selfishness, but overall frustration outweighed the praise.
