Product Information

Conversations on Love will change your perspective of connection, love, friendship, grief, and everything in between. It's the most important book I've read this year, and it may have changed the way I approach relationships forever Her.ie The simple fact of the unknown was one I could not resist wrestling with. Like hauling a heavy suitcase up the stairs at a station, I imagined it would be easier if there were an end point in sight, because when you can see the top of the station stairs or the finish line of a run, it’s easy to dig deep for an extra bit of strength to get there.”

Because being yourself in a relationship is a risk. It means showing someone the real bits of who you are--the spots beneath the make up; the self-doubt beneath the cynicism-and finding the courage to say 'This is me. Take it or leave it' and to really mean it." Aku nggak bisa berkata banyak. Darip banyaknya bagian yang aku beri highlight, aku cuma sanggup menampilkan 2 favoritku.

I needed to read it, you need to read it, everyone needs to read it Stacey Halls, bestselling author of THE FAMILIARS The pandemic has undoubtedly provoked many of us to reflect on connection, intimacy and loss and I feel this book is the perfect companion to those thoughts. From accepting the changing shape of long-term friendships in your thirties and beyond, the gifts of presenting messy vulnerability rather fantasy in fledging romantic relationships, to painstaking building hope after loss, this book is a wide-ranging, intimate, and heartfelt collection of voices and perspectives, encouraging you to consider, appreciate and tend the love in your life in all its infinite forms. The Round Up Based on Lunn’s popular newsletter, this eclectic and heartwarming collection explores love in all its forms, from romantic and parental love to friendship and loss. Lunn has gathered an impressive array of interviewees, from psychotherapist Philippa Perry and psychoanalyst Stephen Grosz to novelists Lisa Taddeo and Diana Evans. Interspersed with short but often deeply revealing interviews are Lunn’s own experiences – of marriage and miscarriage, of being mother and daughter, wife and friend – which she portrays with sensitivity and candour. To Be a Man

There is a lot to like about this book. It is written and flows together beautifully. There were a few sections however that began to meander and become a little too repetitive. Whilst I appreciated hearing from different voices and felt this added another layer to the book…I felt that a lot of the perspectives were quite similar. This added to the sense of repetition through the themes rather than unique or differing perspectives that give greater cause for pause and reflection. Interviewing authors and experts as well as drawing on her own experience, Natasha Lunn guides us through the complexities of these three questions. The result is a book to learn from, to lose and find yourself in. The real-life love stories will leave you feeling hopeful and seen, while the insights from experts will transform the way you think about your relationships. Above all, Conversations on Love will remind you that love is fragile, sturdy, mundane, beautiful; a thing always worth fighting for.

Sisters Marie and Dara Durante own a suburban ballet school they inherited from their mother. Dara’s husband, Charlie – who grew up in the family home as their mother’s star pupil – runs the logistics. When a building contractor, Derek, enters their lives to undertake some repairs, he inveigles his way beneath the trio’s tightly guarded and emotionally fraught bonds. Abbott’s prose is dazzlingly precise and her portrayal of student rivalries razor-sharp in this taut and psychologically gripping novel. Conversations on Love This book is moving and lyrical, but more than anything it captures how love colours and transforms loss, and makes the reader feel that the memory of love is sustains in itself Baroness Julia Neuberger At the end of her journey, Lunn is embarking on motherhood, reflecting on the importance of paying attention, and doing the work of loving rather than waiting for it to arrive: “Love is a choice – and sometimes it’s choosing to love someone even when we don’t feel lovingly towards them. The feeling of being ‘in love’ comes and goes, ebbs and flows, but the ­action of loving is a decision. One we make every day.”
