5.0 out of 5 stars Handbook for the Lovelorn, 4 Feb 2001
Heartache anatomised systematically (alphabetically, like an encyclopaedia). An ideal present for someone getting on your nerves moping around about love - but only for the intellectually inclined. Imagine Morrisey back in the age of the Smiths if he'd written a book. You're seeing the blues in a book, but a French book by a leading intellectual...

3.0 out of 5 stars I read this on the tube over someones shoulder - spot on !, 24 April 2001
By A Customer
I only caught a few lines of this book (first sighting) when sitting next to a total stranger on the tube in the London (England) area. It was sufficent to ask about the book which is, as any student of interaction knows, rare on public transport. Having purchased the publication I was not let down by the perceptive content within the written words. Being a cautious student of classical conditioning I was drawn, and, impressed.
