«Del amor» is Alain de Botton's philosophical essay, published by Ediciones B in hardcover (277 pages, in Spanish).
A man meets Chloe on a flight between Paris and London; the work follows their relationship from initial infatuation to cohabitation, conflicts and distance. De Botton weaves that story with philosophical reflections on love, the idealization of the partner and the contradictions of desire, with literary references and an ironic tone.
Work originally published in 1993 under the title Essays in Love.
For readers interested in philosophy, psychology and contemporary literature, and for those who prefer love stories with a critical eye.
