There is no more joyful or troublesome area of our lives than love. From adolescence onward, it is rare to go for any sustained length of time without some sort of fascinating or devilish new problem emerging around relationships. The Love Series by The School of Life aims to be like an ideal friend around the dilemmas of the heart. Each title zeroes in on one of the central issues we’re liable to confront—from dating to heartbreak, from affairs to arguments. What unites the books is their combination of psychological insight, humanity, and warmth: they lend us the advice and comfort we need to find the happiness we deserve.
